Default Buying a porsche soon, are non turbos any good?

Decided against a boxer cause they are not really porsche in my book. I wanted 911 turbo but those are over 100k. Carreras are nice but so are 911s non turbo. I know its honda board but someone might have some info for me

carrera is a 911 non turbo, and boxster's are great cars.

911 is just a body desiganation on the older porsches. the newest ones are 997's.

The new boxster is much better than the previous. At any rate Puffy, the M3 you have is way better.

I'm surprised I didn't see you at the dealership. I was looking at the 997's, but decided the money would be better spent on a Ferrari...so I'm going to start looking at the F430 spyder.
