Re: Why is my car so slow?
That's one good thing about an open top car like the Boxster. You don't have to go mad to get the thrills. I consistently drive faster with the roof up. Doesn't help that the engine somehow sound better with the roof up, either. I will be honest 80 - 90mph is plenty quick enough for me. 
In fact I set the speed limit alarm at 80 mph. I may go over that but only for very short bursts.

Do yourself a favor:
Try going 140-160...you will be amazed at how rock solid the car is. Then brake. And it stops like it's on velcro rails.

I didn't say how much I went over 80mph, did I? But I take your point, the faster it goes, the more impressive it is, no doubt about that.
