New to the forum
I've been searching around the forum getting a lot of helpful advise but now that I finally bought my new baby I feel like I should introduce myself.
I'm Gabriel, I'm 18 and live in Cali. Just bought myself a 2001 boxster s. I have some plans for it but don't mind opinions. I'll post picture ASAP. I'm a hardcore DIYer so you'll be hearing from me a lot. I ask a lot of questions. Just wanted to say hi and that I'm looking forward to learn a few things and hopefully lend a hand to others. |
Welcome, young owners represent haha! Happy motoring, curious though, what was your previous car?

Welcome to the forum. Look forward to your pics. California is a natural for a Boxster to live. Cheers. Guy.:)

Teenagers with Porsches man this a whole new world. I remember getting hell from wealthy guys I knew in their 50's because I managed to buy one a few years out of college. "Look at this guy a Porsche and he's still young!".
But by a few years out of college I mean a good 7 years. First two cars were Hondas, largely because the insurance on an German car was highway robbery and frankly I was more interest in shoveling as much money as I could into the market. Delayed gratfication meant Porsche was a no go. But I guess with mass production and excess supply it becomes tempting to get in a Porsche straigtht away. |

Good luck to the OP -- Jake, BTW, you've been doing better with your grammar and, sometimes, use of punctuation, although I think 818 is a class ahead of you in terms of posting. ;) |

You're familiar with the phrase, "baby steps", yes? These are more like... "fetal kicks". Keep it up! You'll make Strunk and White proud... one day. Edit: Technically, you could make the argument that you should have used "have" in place of "had"; however, I don't know when 818 made his first post. If it had been a few days to a week or two ago, I think "had" is ok. Having said that, if the first post in this thread is the OP's first, that "have" should be used. Although, I have noticed your webspeak improving consistently over the past few weeks. Nevertheless, I am pleased with your progress -- whatever that may be worth to you -- I do think that others also appreciate the extra effort, too. |
