Martin J,

Thanks for sharing your story with us.

I'd planned to take my Boxster to Philadelphia to surprise my father with its purchase. Unfortunately, he died suddenly not long after I bought it, and he never got to see it. In fact, the first time I drove the Boxster to Philadelphia was a race against time, to arrive before my father expired. Alas, even the engineers from Stuttart could not make it so.

My father was a car guy to the core and I inherited my love for automobiles from him. Through his passing, I learned a valuable lesson about what's important and what's not, and the value of dedicating time to your loved ones while they're here. You see, even in death, my father continues to teach me life's most important lessons. I'm certain that my father is riding shotgun with me each time I take the Boxster for a spin... I just hope I'm not making him motion sick when I'm wringing it out.
