Nice Ride

I had a few complements on the Jägermobile today. First thing this morning while putting fuel into the tank a passerby said, “Nice Ride”... I said, “Thank you”.

While at work two people commented, “I like your car” and “You have a beautiful car”. Another onlooker was walking around my Boxster gazing at it when a coworker yelled out the window, “It’s for sale”, and I shouted back, “No it’s not”!

While driving home this evening, with the top down, I stopped at an intersection and a ~12 year old boy standing at the corner said, “Nice Ride”, I said, “Thank You” and thought to myself… Yes it is.

Had a similar experience right after I bought mine. Nothing like pride of ownership.

My indy here gives me free oil & filter change every 2,500km for FREE for a lifetime or as long as I keep my front & back license plate frame with his garage name and contact details on my tricked 986

He had many people calling him asking about this red Boxster, also asking him if he could mod their Porsche car as nicely as mine. Every single time I go there he tells me story about people seeing my car around and calling him for more info. Works!

Very pleasant to hear every time
