It's time to upgrade and I am looking for a 2000 or 2001 Cabriolet. Can anyone help me with what were the differences? The Boxter had ton of options, what are recommendations on the Carrera? Any place for good reviews? Any advice would be appreciated.... and by the way if you know anyone in the market for a mint Boxter with all the bells and whistles let me know. Thanks

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination.

If you can foot for the 02, I would get that -Lou
As the price difference between '02 and '01 is not great, I would suggest '02 as well. Overall there were no difference betweent 2K and 01. The changes did occur in 02 model with front-end, chassis and engine size. But pre 02 models are great as well. Since it's a buyer market I would try to find a nice low milage car with most of the options that interest you and don't pay premium for anything else
