78 Retired industrial engineer. 42 year Porsche owner, 3 356's, 1 914, 1 912, & 2 911's. Current car is a 2004 S. Likes: Quiet & smooth driver, comfortable, fast, great touring car. Dislikes: Nowhere close to a 911 in driving feel, brute force driving techniques. Also, extremely dislike all the "mods" the Boxter crowd is obsessed with, e.g. plastic snowplow front bumpers, silly decals and bling wheels. All that does is turn a well designed car into a boulevard freak. My 2 cts worth.

I am 58 years old. I operate the bulk electrical transmission system. I also own and operate a stained glass studio. Currently enjoying a 98 base unit with 87,000 miles. I had a 914, BC (before children).We went through the VW,Jeep,Japanese and big truck phases. Throw in a few boats and bikes. I must say the Porsche's have been my favorite four wheel internal combustion smile inducers of them all.

Great, considering the average age of well over 60 in this thread, I feel young again at 52!

I agree, no reason to unreasonably modify a boxster, albeit i assume it's an eastern thing, as here in southern california the majority of owners keep their boxster pretty stock with exception to lighting (if not litronic) and stereo enhancements (most bose systems are dead by now). |
