You're correct. Thanks for reminding me. I guess I'll have to change the challenge now.

Boxster and a trailer

Next: Picture of your Boxster taken from 2nd floor level or higher.
Did not have a flash and it is night time here on East Coast of USA so I just had the headlights.

I rigged up a small camera in the windshield. It is no GoPro camera, but it does shoot video from HD all the way to VGA. Here is the link to the video I shot with it today. In case you want to know, it is a Panasonic DMC-FP1. The video was shot in VGA resolution to keep the file size small, so it is not high resolution. The first scenes were shot with a Sony Digital8 camcorder in 16:9 mode.

Since Halloween is coming up, I think we need a horror picture.

@ Spinnaker, Nice video. Your interior looks like it has no dust whatsoever.

When you say stealership, do you mean dealership?
Urban Dictionary says a stealership is a dealership that charges lots of money. In that case, I have tons of pictures since I worked at many dealerships/stealerships.

Boxster at a stealership:

Here is one at a Mazda dealership.

One at a VOB dealership that sells Porsche's and other luxury/sports cars.

Ok, you wise guys with the loophole antics, calm that down, it's bad enough that I have to iron out the scores from 13 pages of pictures. ...and no one wants to see repeats, gents.

ProjectM96, I think we're going to need a picture that has some sort of actual sign(s) that show that you are indeed at a dealership. It's not that I don't believe that you are where you say you are, but if you're in a Porsche dealer lot or there's a sign behind your car that reads "Moe's Chop n' Shop", or sales stickers and writings on the windows of cars for sale, stuff like that, then there's no disputing that you are where you claim to be. If you have one ready or can go and take one, go ahead and edit your post with the appropriate picture, and the point is yours and your challenge will stand (because I've got one ready to meet your challenge).

I did say a "Porsche" (st)dealership specifically.
Also, there has been a conspicuous lack of pictures from the originator of this thread.

BTW Overdrive, how did the clamshell turn out?
And my picture isn't a repeat, it is one of the reject shots from that location so it is a different picture.

Done. Added another dealership picture. These pics should be obvious without a sign because of the ways the cars are parked.

Spinnaker, you're right, I missed the fact that you specifically asked for a Porsche dealership when I was addressing PorjectM96's pictures. Let's make sure we read before we jump in with pictures, folks.

ProjectM96, if you have one nearby, go find the Porsche dealer and snap a pic so we can keep going.

As for a lack of pics from yours truly, well, I've made a bit of an effort to allow others to participate in this more than myself. Since I'm sort of in an overseeing role I don't feel as right about getting in there on some things. For Project's challenege I was actually going to take a hat with my school's name and put it on the hood or roof and take a pic, but HighLow beat me to it. (BTW, can you all see his picture or is it Red-X'd for others, too? I'm at work so I think that's why I can't see it)

As for the clamshell (and not to threadjack myself), haven't had time to figure out what's up with the top. I know I broke something, hopefully just those plastic ball end caps, but everyone seems to think I should still be able to raise the clamshell via the switch, and I cannot, so I have no idea what to do from here to get under the clamshell...if any of you have any recommendations PM me so we don't clog this thread with off-topic stuff, or just post in the thread I made about the incident.

I guess we will take the VOB stealership pic from ProjectM96 since they sell Porsches.

Don't throw away everything, you never know when it will come in handy.
