Although it now lives in the garage, and it's winter here - so if I didn't have it I wouldn't miss it.

The Cab is a far more practical car than the BoxsterS.
If you have more than one passenger frequently the roadster will make your life harder.
If you can live with only two seats the BoxsterS in addition to giving you top down fun is an excellent choice for track and autocross. The difference in having your engine behind the seats or behind the rear wheels is HUGE. Its up to the driver to choose which is preferred.
Roadsters are in their own category. To me its kind of like saying should I get an S2000 or an Audi S4 or a BMW 645 convertible. All three have very different purposes and handling qualities. You have to choose which use you will have the most need for and choose based on that.

Thanks for all the feedback! I really like the BoxsterS but would enjoy the larger interior for the occasional child use. I've had a 911 Coupe for years, but with the rollbar in and the other track goodies, it hardly sees street time or little ones. I thought a Cab would make the best "compromise" car for my needs.
