Question '93 911 Cab or '99 Boxster?

My 951 has eaten the headgasket, and while its down, I need to get something to drive. After toying with the idea of having a tow vehicle, it made more 'sense' to me to get another P-car.

Not too many people wanted to give me a loan, but I did find one dealer who might finance either a '93 911 Cab white/blue or a '99 Boxster Black pearl/black. I don't know the mileage on either one.

Opinions as to which car might be a better choice?

Thanks,

Get a PPI on the 964 - they're known to have a few problems. Unless you need the power for some reason (and you shouldn't since you own a 951), the Boxster might make more sense: newer usually means fewer problems and more features when you're talking Porsches.

I'd lean towards the 964 cab myself. I like 964s.
