Hey Guys,

I just picked up a 99 Boxster w/ 61k and I absolutely love it. I'm in the process of converting my 2003 EVO VIII into a track only car and I needed a daily driver and I have always loved the Boxster.

The car runs great, has zero hesitiation through all gears and is in wondeful condition. The only problem I have found so far is that the spoiler light is on and shut's off once I start driving. According to the manual these means that it is not functioning correctly but I can live with that. If you have seen the wing on an EVO you'll understand why it's no biggie to me. On the cooling side, the car seems to run a little warm when in traffic or city driving but is fine on the freeway. I don't want to go to dealership unless I really need to. This is my first Porsche and my first MR car so I really don't know to much about them. Any help or newbie knowledge would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Kachur
