    I’m sorry you can’t afford a 911.

    Yes, the little boxster will be much worse than your x-type. If you want cars for a long journey like that, stay with the grand touring class of automobiles, as they are optimally designed for long distance driving.

    Virtually ANY Porsche is meant to be driven at high speeds for long distances…comfortably.

    It’s much more of a true sports car than the Jag(and more visceral), but I doubt you would have any issues doing a 200 mile jaunt twice a week.

    Actually, you’ll probably be looking forward to it, after you and the car get acclimated.

    The Boxster will be firmer. It’ll be up to you to decide if that’s “rough.” Porsche is proud of their exhaust notes; they’re actually engineered. If you’re looking for a marshmallow for a short trip (200 miles isn’t much, although I can imagine how twice a week, month after month, might feel), get a Cadillac or a small Mercedes. As far as I can tell, there is no convertible X Type. There is only the cabriolet (convertible) Boxster. That alone will make the car much louder to you.

    You can’t carry much in a Boxster. While it has two trunks, they’re both small. If you’re planning on hauling your golf clubs, forget it. Get a Cadillac, a small Mercedes, or an Audi.

    All of that said, the Boxster is about ten times the automobile the “recycled Ford Mondeo (Type X Jaguar)” is. If you really want a Porsche and can put up with the lack of golf cart capabilities, you might be happier in the Cayman.

    The Cayman is more than a coupe version of the Boxster (says the man with a 911 Turbo S). It’ll be quieter, you can equip it with a more powerful engine, and I’m guessing you’d like it better. Above all, it’s a Porsche.
