I will spare you the spreadsheet, but first up, new headlight bulbs (maybe some of Nine6Nine's xenon upgrades later this year), upgrade my iPod connection for my new iPhone, full detail, and to do more of the regular maintenance myself! Also on the list, clear taillights, ROW M030 upgrade, new tires...

Happy New Year Everyone!

I think I better get outa this Boxster and into an 09 or newer Boxster or a low mileage 996 Turbo. Neither will cost me more in the long run...

As much as I don't want to - I think I will do the IMS in the spring. It's a big expense that for most people has zero return other than piece of mind. But I think I'll buy a chunk of that piece of mind, even though my high-kilometer box is at the low end of the risk scale.

Other than that, I resolve to drive the heck out of it this year!
