small and light > expensive and larger.

Definitely appreciate engineering, size, weight and feedback they provide in the world we live in today but simply put they are not that small either compared to older models as you state. Boxster/Cayman is a large car compared to Miata which is a true resemblance of the yesteryear in my opinion and an excellent value.

I've been debating this for a while. I currently have a 981 Cayman S. I've only driven a C7 z51 once, I was impressed. Both have their attributes. I am still confused to this date, but I've decided the c7 will be my next move.

Given the high likelihood of the NA flat six being replaced by a flat four turbo by model year 2017, I'd say get the BS for now, keep it for a few years and then get a C7, its V8 is not going anywhere for a while.

You have no idea what a sports car is.

Don't think objectively you can say they'll compare given the Stingray has oh, nearly 150 more hp and nearly 200 lb ft tq. But it's the thrill and precision of driving a cayman or boxster than no Vette will ever match.

Cayman S wins. Outcome would be the same with a Boxster S.

Corvette is more brute force compared to the precision weapon a Cayman/Boxster are.

This is tough, IMHO the Stingray is the best bang for buck on the market, full stop. it's a remarkable car. I have long lusted for a Boxster, i love drop tops and one with power and agility is ideal.

I'd probably go the Boxster S, because if i am taking mountain roads or any kind of twisties, i want the agility you said the vette was lacking. If i am tracking, take the vette.

I feel for you though, tough freakin life, I too am torn on a purchase decision, do i go with the $60 hose reel that hides the hose or spend $20 more for one that swivels and less people complain about?

You're killing me.

[Chihuahua]

Boxster, hands down.

[DieGrüneHölle]

Something about a guy driving a Boxster, maybe buy one for your wife. Go with a Z51 Stingray manual, but non-vert.

[E90Flossin]

Thank you all for your feedbacks and opinion. I thoroughly appreciate all your comments and insights. Seems like a split decision between the two. I was leaning more towards the Vette, but when I look at the porsche, its just a beautiful thing to look at it.

I wanted something thats a great cruiser with descent speed, and maybe a head turner I am gonna check out the Vette first but if that doesn't work out, then I am going towards the porsche, i will have fate decide haha

[Alfisti]

If you're cruising rather than attacking apexes, take the Vette, hands down. Mean ass car.

Cayman GT4 with manual. a no brainer IMO. I don't see the Corvette in the same category at all.....The Cayman GT4 is a beautifully built elite sports car...the Corvette is just a sports car.

FTFY

[davis449]

I went with the auto Vette. Just can't back a Boxster purchase. If you'd said Cayman S...

I won't say it's as much of a chick car as the boxster. Not to many cars match that level. But it's not somthing I would drive. Would rather take the corvette. Sexy looks, wide stance, v8 growl. That's more on my level.

seems that some members on this forum are insecure about their sexuality
