New to the forum, just got my 3rd boxster

[JamesDean550]

Just wanted to say hello. Ive owned 3 boxsters. A 97, 98, and now a 2000. Never thought about this forum when i owned the last 2. Of course i sold the 98 in 2010. I just bought the 2000 earlier this month and i am going to do all of the maintenance and repairs this time around. Thats the main reason i joined. Car has higher miles, 120,000 but runs very well. Its def my most rough boxster cosmetically. Lots of scrapes...prob why i got it for $5700, LOL. Anyway look forward to meeting other Porsche enthusiasts!

Welcome to the forum. Feel free to post a pic of your car even if it's a little rough. We still like to see them all. I've found 986s easier to work on than most of the cars I've had. Pretty much anything you need to know has already been done and done again by people on this forum.

Cant upload pics on mobile site and the desktop site, it never finishes uploading. Are my file sizes too large? All my pics are over a MB. I think the limit for jpeg on here is 400 KB. Maybe i need to take pics in a lower resolution?

email your pics to your own email and you will be ask what size to minimize the size. then save the pics from email you receive and use those to attach to your thread here.

Be certain to size the pics so that we don't have to scroll side to side for 10 minutes. Thank you.

Sorry for so many posts, trying to get the hang of this old school format site.
