Excellent post, 944boy, thanks!

You have one of the highest mileage 987's I've seen. Good job. Considering I only drive mine about 2 times per month from mid-April till mid-October, I feel I have a lot of miles at almost 44,000. More than most owners who have these as DD.

Tell me more about the low temp thermostate. What temp does your Boxster run at now (mine is right at slightly <12:00...the needle is dead center on the '7' in '175')? Does it reach op temp faster too? Thanks.
