Default Bit the new Boxter bullet

Okay, I have just traded my '06 BoxterS w/ manual for a '13 Boxter (non S) CPO car with PDK and 4500 miles. I'll be taking delivery next week. I considered the S, but the fact that I just bought a new Cayenne diesel recently, kept me from stretching the budget further.
To me there is no other car like the Boxter. Almost bought a '12 911 Cab. a while back, but balked because it just didn't have that mid-engine handling. I had a Cayman with PDK for a couple of years and loved it, but missed the top-down experience.
I will probably miss the 6spd, but the PDK is a fabulous transmission, I think all the plusses of the new Boxter will overcome.

You will love it. We traded our '07 Boxster S for a new '13 Boxster (base). Did a 1000 mile trip last week into Canada (Banff, Revelstoke, Nakusp, etc.). The car was the perfect.

Zen, no need for apologies. I'm sure no one got hurt. I just had to take advantage of the word play you offered.
