I just like ogling it in the garage ! Seriously, though, as of the last 2 years or so, my permanent residence has been in a very rural area of Massachusetts . So rural, that the road that I live on is the most god forsaken unmaintained 1 1/2 mile stretch that you've ever seen. For that reason, I was unable to drive it for the last year or so. Fortunately, last summer I was able to find a garage that was close-by that I could rent . This season I hope to drive the Dangermobile all the way to California with flowers in my hair .

Now that will be a road trip! I will have a cold beer (or drink of choice) waiting for you when you get here.

I feel fortunate not to have seasons here in Southern California, in fact I was running the Air Conditioning in the Boxster yesterday (mid 70's). I really enjoy driving with the top down or windows down but my wife complains about it messing-up her hair... So on with the AC.

JD - I'll make sure I'm not in the Berkshires this spring . Only 19k miles you must be on a lot of secret assignments. If there is someone that can do this for $1600 while you shop at the mall that's a deal.

Anyway, I did mine with the car exactly 20inches of the ground, I am SO glad I removed the rear bumper. I can see if I could get the car up at standing height I might be inclined to leave it on. Note when I put my bumper back on just wearing a cotton (probably dirty ) sweat shirt put swirl marks in it, np though I buffed it back to beautiful again.

Cheers.
