I owned a 2001 986 2.5 boxter, about ten years old I think, had it a couple of years until genuinely company car forced sale. It was fantastic, every drive was rewarding, made the best “yowl” noise when pushed, but was so well-mannered, comfortable around town etc and not challenging to drive. I did get some mild “poor man’s Porsche” piss taking comments but to be fair, this was an accurate summary. If I had the spare money / space / time etc I would get another, this time in the S.
