Should I cancel Boxster S order and order a 997 instead?
Ok my fellow helmets, I need your advice:
After test driving both the Boxster S and 911 Carrera Coupe I fell in love with both cars. I wanted the Carrera, but at the time decided on the Boxster S for cost reasons.
I placed my order for a '05 987S on Feb. 14, completion date estimated June 4.
Generously specced:
Slate Grey
Blk Full leather
19" Carrera Classic wheels
Wheel caps
S/S tailpipe
Sport Shifter
PASM
Sport Chrono wart
Bi-xenons
Sport seats
Heated seats
Sport steering wheel
Porsche crest on head restraints
Since then, I've been able to rationalize spending the extra cash to afford a 997 albeit lightly loaded:
'06 Carrera Coupe
Arctic silver
18" Carrera III wheels
Wheel caps
Std leather sea blue
Bi-xenons
Sport shifter
Rear ctr console in exterior color
Sport steering wheel
So my thinking is less options, but still "more" car(??).
Now another issue is my dealer is telling me something like a October arrival date for an '06 (which of course will cost a bit more).
What would you folks do? Get the Boxster S due in less than two months, or throw down the extra cash and P-A-T-I-E-N-C-E to get a Carrera Coupe?
Your feedback/opinions greatly appreciated!
