Can we smoke Boxter??
i just saw a 2k2 maxima with greddy were racing a porsche boxter on I-5 South today. they passed me by my driver's side!! at that moment, the maxima was taking the lead like that boxter was at that maxima's passenger side front door. i didn't finish watch them cuz i had to exit at Beach Blvd. i meant, can we win a porsche boxter??

I thought base boxsters were 15 second cars. Something for the posers to buy to impress nobody.

There's a big difference between a Boxster and a Boxster "S." 2K2 or 2K3 Maximas with manual transmission can outrun the regular Boxster, but not the Boxster S. The one you saw was most likely a regular Boxster. Easiest way to tell the difference is to look at the exhaust outlet; if there's one pipe, it's a regular Boxster.

in taiwan, they tried to sell the 2k-2k1 maximas by showing ads where the max out accelerated the base boxster in the 0-60 mph run.
the slogan was: "want a 4 door sedan that can beat a porsche?"
i dunno about highway runs though
but if a 2k-2k1 can do it... i'm sure a 2k2 can
