Just realized I picked up my Boxster a year ago this weekend. Haven't missed the creature comforts of the SLK I sold one bit (maybe the heated / vented seats) but that's it!
So far just as most predicted spent about $2300 in that year on maintenance, most of that going to clutch / flywheel. Put just shy of 10,000 miles on it. I can easily find another $2000 of things to all suspension related but for now I'm content with it as is just doing little things here and there.
Have yet to find any locals to meet up with or go to a Porsche event, gotta get on that.
Here's a picture from my morning drive near the DE bay.
Thanks to all that helped with my newb questions!
