Base Boxster Lover Since 99

987 +1
987 with 6 Speed +1 (hi tweedenglish)

Thank you, Bavarian Motorist, gave 987 owners something to talk about.
Now we can "group buy" something!

I love your cars, guys.

Red and yellow and white and silver...I love every color on this car, to be honest. True beauty is independent of color, right?


GmanMD: NO EXCUSE! I drive mine every day when I'm in the city Get 'er out.



Vladie: Welcome to the forum!




Group buy fabspeed mufflers, anyone?

There was a guy picking up his new Seal Grey 06 base model 987 from my dealer in White Plains, when I was there about 3 weekends ago; it was a car I had test-driven, in fact. But I guess he hasn't shown up here...

I'm sure most won't


I bought mine from New Country in Greenwich.

I sure am missing driving it. I don't have a place to store winter tires, so I had to break out my old Subie. Driving the Subaru really makes me appreciate the Boxster. It is real hard going back to an "average" car after driving these.

Yeah, well, my car is stuck on 5 inch thick ice in my driveway.


No clue how I'm gonna get it out. I'm driving an '02 honda accord as we speak.





No garage space for me.

You got the right color, Super66.
I always think white looks best with 987.
The first white 987 I saw was SD987's here(I haven't seen one in person yet), and it blew me away.
More pictures please!

I almost bought a base 987. Props to you guys--they're fun cars. The extra kick from the S was hard to resist, but I'm reckless that way I suppose.

These pics are convincing me that yellow is a very good color for this car.

My next Porsche (911 please) may have to be yellow.

Group buy for what? I could use some new rear tires, but I have the 18" S wheels

Well, whatever the majority of us wants I suppose. I can pretty much use anything on my car.
