That is quiet a list. It should help the resell value if you choose to part with it.

It does add up fast. Your sales tax is going to be about $6,000...to keep the Govenator happy!

Not to start a political thread but it isn't the Governator that wants taxes to stay high.
BTW-Did you know that in CA, if you trade a car in, you DO NOT get a sales tax reduction of any kind.
In other states, you pay sales tax on the net difference between the two cars.
Sigh!

To add to the confusion, one can buy a 2003 911 Cab for about $65K. This is one fine automobile!

Gonna hafta ...
think about this one. Worst mistake I've made was selling my low mileage '83 SC coupe a couple years ago. Love my Boxster, but I think I would rather have the 911. The new Cayman looks awfully intriguing tho...

'99 Silver Boxster, nicely optioned.
'98 BMW 318ti, pretty much with everything.

Bolkar, you've done what I can only dream of doing. Ordering a new boxster S all maxed out with leather everthing! Pleeeeeaaase post pics of the inside and outside of it when you get it.
I always feel the need to live vicarously through someone, and it might as well be you for a while

I will post pictures as soon as I get the delivery.
As for the tax part. I am not complaining a bit. This might sound really strange for most of you, but I am willing to pay twice as much as it is now. I spoke with a friend in Europe and he got the cost from the dealer there, this same exact car costs 156,900 Euro. The Tax is like 112% of the car price (so many taxes inside, like luxury tax, etc.). And do not forget the gas price there (a liter costs almost same as our gallon).
Let me take a second and thank Uncle Sam for making it possible for us to buy a Porsche and enjoy driving it (well, I can not drive yet, but soon). We are fortunate to be living in US.
