I have two now!!!!

It's about time I graduated. I can't believe I bought another one... a 2007 and so many nice features... and btw, where the hell is the oil dipstick, lol. I have so much to learn. Does anyone know where I can download the operators manual? I'm now selling the '98. My girlfriend doesn't have a place to park. My decisions have consequences oh well!

Congratulations, Chris! Would loooove to see some pictures. And yes, let the GF drive the 986. If you need help with your newly acquired 987 we do have articles that should be helpful here: Porsche Boxster 986/987 (1997-2004) Technical Articles | Pelican Parts. Enjoy!

Chris, now that you have multiple Boxsters, you are welcome to move across the border into Oklahoma.

'07s have only the digital dipstick, FWIW.

Congrats on the new P-car!

Selling your '98, just because you bought another Porsche? What kind of reason is that? You'll be sorry!!! Never sell one good car just because you've got another good car. We've got three 986's, and three 911's, so far, plus sundry other makes. I've never regretted buying a Porsche, but I have regretted selling some.

I need to keep up with technology and parts get harder to find. I just need newer... feels like dating a new girlfriend.
