Here are some North Texas Boxster Enthusiasts meeting pics from Saturday, May 4th 2013.

We had to use a shoe horn to get ALL those Boxsters in the driveway! DFW02S is on the front left here, mine is on the right. KennyBxster & Kashmir in row two.


Here we have 4 Boxsters in the drive & 1 (BruceH's) n the garage + the 2 more on the street are Keyboy (on left) and Zims Auto master Porsche guru (on right)…AND we were more than a couple people light - you know you were! At long last we got to meet Kashmir (silver Boxster with aero wing - he is installing a trailer hitch that is why there are no Bumperettes shown). Kashmir is a 'Porsche Surgeon' so we are glad he was able to be there. Our "knowledge base" on these cars increases with every new member that attends.


The Boxster on the right belongs to a 30 year employee of Zimms Auto! He lives across the street, literally, from BruceH. We were glad to have his expertise and insight. He had some interesting stories to share - you'll just have to attend to hear for yourself!



Here my car is just ahead of DFW02S…about the only time that will happen!


Our host with his car in the garage and Kenny hard at work reading the computer.


Everyone enjoyed BruceH's new top with a GLASS window…and it was reasonably priced at around $450! Looks good too! The window is slightly smaller than the factory plastic but no more getting out of the car to do the "Boxster Chop" for him AND the window is heated. We ALL offered to take it off his hands. NICE!


Here is a new member's car, Kefboy. He was the Durametric winner with 0 type 2 overrevs on a 120k mile car! He bought it with a lot of upgrades, some he didn't even know were not standard - such as a 911 front bumper, rims, lowering springs...it is stunner! Nice car!


Kefboy's 911 front bumper looks like it is smiling - having a good time too...


Aside from ALL the Porsche eye candy, we did manage to squeeze in some now famous KennyBoxster-style BBQ! Many people complimented him on the taste and he has an unusual recipe, made with Apple Juice?? …you'll have to ask Kenny for the details….but it WAS GOOD! Many had seconds, and thirds were not uncommon.

We did examine the remains of an IMS gone bad, but it was hard to see. Will have to take some closeups so everyone can get a look.

Hats off to our hosts Bruce & his wife Kim too. By themselves they MADE the party interesting! That's all I'm going to say, except that everyone had FUN! There may be more evidence circulating that proves the fun theory but we are trying to maintain an 'professional' image here, like our cars! So…keep it to yourself! ;-)

Here we are on the way home. So much for a parade BUT we DID turn a few heads!
