He didn`t even like it. He bought it because everyone was saying that the Miata was the best handling car for the money, but he hated it so much that he sold it two years after he bought it, and bought a Corvette C6 Z51 vert.
That's the key phrase. Is the boxster better than the miata? Objectively yes. However is it twice as good? Not to me and if money were of no concern at all I would definitely not have a miata... but I also wouldn't have a boxster.

I would probably have some obscene exotics, but I would also definitely have a mint condition Z4MR.
