Hi everyone, currently have a
06 Cayman S
, i'm checking on a 2011
Carrera
S with 37K miles
PDK
, $57K and 2014
Boxster S
9K miles $55K, cant decide which one to purchase. if it was you which car would you buy? owned
boxster
before. i usually do my own maintenance. How reliable is 2011
Carrera
S, at 37K miles what maintenance does it needs.

Are you seeking model recognition when pulling into gas stations?
No right or wrong answer. Test drive should help you decide. The
911
will need the 40k service pretty soon. Think that includes plugs as well as the major maint items. Warranty may be a consideration. If these are US cars the BoxsterS should have some factory warranty left and possibly could be CPO if buying from a dealer.
911
is past original factory warranty.
Yes US cars, buying it from dealer, they told me
boxster
still has the factory warranty.
My two cents would be to go with the
Boxster
. It is a newer design and is easier to work on.
Just based on looks, I'd pick the
981
over the 997 in a blink. If it was a 991, my answer would be different. Based on ride, test drive both for both ride differently. Based on reliability, both are very reliable.
Good luck... There's no right or wrong answer. It's subjective.
Thank You all for the reply, i will get the
Boxster
. made plans for Monday. 2014, 9K miles AGATE GREY METALLIC,
SPORT CHRONO PACKAGE
.
PDK
.
Going to miss my Cayman.
That's a fantastic looking
Boxster
. Love those wheels

they told me wheels are 20 inch
Great cars, both.
Those are 20" Sport Classic or Carrera classic wheels or whatever they call it.
You didn't say the Boxster you are looking at only has 9000 miles. Comparing that to a 10 year old Carrera is tricky.
I am biased but I think you've made an eeeeexcellent choice.
