Did you know that Shari Lewis and Lamb Chop were two of the first people to take delivery of a 986 boxster in the USA ?

[Jager]

Did Lamb Chop fit into one of the door compartments, since it didn't have a glove box?

Here's another little known fact:

Charles Bronson in his later years wanted to do a remake of Death Wish, using a 986 boxster as his vigilantly get away car ! Unfortunately, the producers would only agree to use a Chrysler k-car, so the project was scrapped .

[Bobiam]

But he decided against it, because, in his later years, he knew that it would take several minutes to contort himself into the driver's seat, making for a slow getaway.

and he could be tracked by the trail of white smoke belching from the failed AOS

The wiki just keeps pouring in:

Frank Stallone, brother of famed Sylvester Stallone, leased a 2.7 boxster back in 2001 . Unfortunately, he defaulted on payments and the car was later repossessed .

Shari Lewis is old it's way more likely she bought this




As for Mr. Bronson, I doubt you would see him in a foreign car, you better go rent Mr Majestic and behold the Ford truck pounding he administers.

And a wife who made castanets out of his nuts..... One is enough for me, but I do admire his 550, pretty damn tight.

Let's not forget about Legally Blonde

[ProjectM96]

The owner of Carmaxx turned his 986 into a Beetle, which has nearly the same wheel base:
Herbie Bugster

[Ghostrider 310]

But why Carmaxx guy? Why?

I'll bet he just likes the looks on people's faces when they go to pick on the lowly VW and it turns out to be a wolf in sheepskin.

Rumor has it, Bruce Jenner owned a 2007 "S" up until recently, before he sold it to pay for some more cosmetic surgery .
