An older non S you could take, but from a roll don't count on blowing his doors off. Remember also the Boxsters are about 600lbs lighter than a GT and the rear engine helps quite a bit with traction.
Personally, I've always thought they were a little underpowered for what they're supposed to be. The new S's make them more respectable for a Porsche.

I know the reason he threw the bird. He did it towards your gf! I just found out that in Germany, the only people you find driving porsche's are gay people! lol. I couldn't believe it, but I had a bunch of German's tell me that. He was mad because you had a girl and not him in your car! lol

Just like most C class Mercedes are Taxi's in Holland and some other parts of Europe. I told a guy that once and he replied: "Those taxi guys must be rich folk," Underlying reasoning is that the Mercs have pretty solid oil burners. And Diesel is a cheaper in Holland than gas.
Boxters still have the stigmata of being a Chick car. No matter how fast they are, it is still a excuse for not springing for the 911. If you are a girl you are 100% fine, but as a guy you are being ridiculed by pretty much everyone. For many there is only one Porsche, and that is the 911. And for the older generation it has to be a air cooled one too.

Yeah I know the types, drive boxsters and Z4s...total chick cars.
I had a z4 a few weeks ago that did same thing, only didn't flip me off, but I took off from a green light like I normally do and I hear him downshift. I just floored it. At the next light he granny rolled me (coast off the line then gun it). Granny rolling AKA street start makes you lose a few tenth on 0-60 since you already have the weight of the car in motion and the TQ is hindered at that point by the RPM.
At the third and final light I simply hammered it from the start, he was so far back by 60 I slowed to let him catch up, he didnt both to try.
Mind you Im an auto so street starts really do kill me unless I manual shift. Ford is way too slow on the autoshift in Stock form which is where Im at, at the moment.
