Boxster Spyder vs Ferrari 360 Spider

We head to the South Coast in two of the most evocative drop-tops around, the new Boxster Spyder and Ferrari's 360 Spider

The new Boxster Spyder is a very special car, but how does it stack up against a true exotic? We show you two different ways to spend your £50K. Both are mid-engined, both are rear-wheel drive but one used to cost well over £100K. Will the second hand Ferrari feel tired or will the Boxster shrink in the shadow of a prancing horse?
