What have you crammed into your Boxsters?
 
Today, I managed to get one of my bikes into the rear trunk. Sure, I had to take off the fork and the wheels will have to go up front, but it fits with room to spare!

No, this won't be an everyday transport setup, but I'm going on a 2,000 mile road trip/bike trip, and I feel like taking the Boxster instead of the IS300 (the usual bike hauler).

What about you guys?

I am surprised that that fit because it is such a large shape, but I've fit more than that.
I managed to fit one roll aboard suitcase, two medium sized duffle bags, a regular backpack, an old 15" iMac, a regular sized cooler, a few jackets, plus an extra passenger. And that was without my roof rack.

Who needs an SUV when you have a Boxster? :D

I've crammed more into my 944 than I would like to admit. But in the Boxster the most I have fit was 2 barstools, one of which fit in the front and one in the passenger seat.

The best photo I have seen was the one with Lovebunny in her frunk - that was a good one.

The frunk fits (2) cases of wine very nicely.

One of the reasons I bought the boxster was it's generous cargo space compared to other cars in it's class.

Last year my wife and I took it on a week-long camping trip and packed among other things, a six-man tent, 15 lb of steaks, 2 sleeping bags and an air matress. We filled just about every cubic inch of space including under the seats, the behind the steat storage bin and pillows behind the seats.

Last year for the Tail of the Dragon trip my car was so packed to the gills, I had to ship a small box to the hotel/motel. Then ship it back home for the return.

I had a couple suitcases, computer bag, briefcase and lots of cleaning supplies.

I still can't get my mind cleaned off that one. :cheers:

Here is something to consider, if you are going to be overfilling your frunk:

^ Das Schield is offering a group buy for the Boxster. $210 front and rear.
Email them for a place on the buy. It's a big list.

The most I've had in the black spider was for the BrumosU school.
Two tons of fun!!! :cheers: :dance: :cheers:

There's another thread that has LOTS of pics and discussion about this same thing. You should check it out as it's actually quite humorous.

I've crammed my brother into mine, but I didn't make him ride in the trunk. He doesn't particularly like my car.

I've fit in the front trunk about $300 worth of groceries from Costco... unfortunatly there wasnt anymore room to fit the emotional baggage i'd aquire from spending $300 at Costco on food alone. Next time i goto Costco, im just buying a case of yogurt and AMC Movie Tickets... and maybe stop by the instore optometrist for a check up so i can show off my 15/20 vision. :D

I carried an LSD diff from my old E36 in the front trunk, fit well but the weight was a little much that far forward. Kinda reminded me of driving my 911, so it wasn't all that bad.

Page 2 post #38, but read the whole thing, it is really funny.
I would love to have comments from all the people who witnessed these Porsche driving idiots taking all the digital photos of groceries in their trunks!! :D :D :D :D

The only thing better would have been a mob competition with bodies in their trunks! :eek:
