Winter meets summer



Got to enjoy two of my favorite hobby's today. First day of skiing and one of the last days of Boxstering this year as it is the season to put her away and take out the x-country skis.

Nice shot!

Which spoiler is that? It looks better than most I've seen.

This is the spoiler from the aero kit 2, from Porsche for the 986. I could not believe how much it transformed the ride at high speeds. Seams like the car feels more stable the faster U go

Good photo. We'll be doing plenty of that as well as downhill skiing here pretty soon. In fact it's snowing in the Tetons right now. Only difference is my Boxster still gets driven in the winter.
My downhill and AT skis fit inside fine, but how do you get your XC skis inside the Boxster?

I do it carefully. Took my shortest ski pair and threaded them slowly under the passenger door. And - yes I have removed the speaker compartment on top of the engine lid. So I threaded the skis under the transverse bar. Was careful so they don't even touch the frozen plastic rear window.
