Got a few requests for pictures, so...

The car looks fantastic. Plus you picked the right wheels!
Congrats and enjoy it.

Wow - thank you all so much for your kind words and suggestions. Was nice to read these after 2 hell days of traveling, crummy hotels, food and airport delays! Wife even loves the car and woke me up at 5:15 am and wanted to go driving in the mountains!

Yes, you guessed it .... I said it....

"So, you wanna play with my short shifter?"

Denverpete is right. My car is often mistaken for a school bus, and yours probably will be, too.

Let me know how long it takes for the belts to start getting grubby from running through the black belt guides. Black belts, black belt guides ... no problem. Yellow belts, black belt guides ... problem. But maybe Porsche has seen the light and changed the material in the belt guides since '99 so it doesn't discolor the belts.

Anyway, beautiful car, and just the right color. There is a reason about half the cars in the Porsche ads are yellow.

Hmmm. I haven't quite figured out why Ronzi likes the yellow Boxster so much. It's right there, but I can't put my finger on it.....
