Since she will be driving it, I think involving her in the process of selecting the features would be best.
she's 17....you're kidding right.

Mike981S is an unknown quantity at this point
Just saw her age. But if you think it makes sense to buy a 17 year-old a new Boxster S, I think my questions are still valid. I think it is better to ask her (within a budget) than us who are not familiar with her abilities and likes and dislikes.

Mike (who has a 16 year-old)

Since you ordered it, I assume you considered why you want for her peformance oriented car.
Since she is girl, this could be good combo + color of car is good for dust & scratches that starters often make.

I had 300+ HP in my first as well. However, it was a Lincoln Mark VIII, far from a sports car.

Don't ask...
