She doesn't need gloves Bruce, she is a woman and she has a Boxster, what other bargaining tools would she need for a simple brake job? I don't know about the UK but over here if a woman stands near a puddle guys will line up to toss their jackets in for safe crossing.

PS Any tire shop of talent will find a bent wheel on the spin balancer

Welcome to the forum SP!

Go ahead and get those fingernails dirty! Real men are more impressed by a competent girl wrenching on her own Porsche.

Watch you don't get a run in your nylons though. And get some steel-toed pumps. We don't want any accidents!

Haha I love that picture. I do my own car work if I have to. I'm better at sweet talking

I'm handy with a wrench, I also know more about car stuff than most of the guys in the office but there is always someone smarter than you. And boys do like to talk about cars with a girl when they find out I know what I am talking about.

I hate changing my oil but I don't mind getting into the guts and taking car of stuff, just wish I has a garage to work in. I still have an rx7 that is in parts under a car cover at my old apartment complex because I don't have the time to drop the new motor in.

PS: Love you guys already, thanks for inviting me to your group, some places are all guys all the time and don't like girls getting in the club

So yeah, thanks

A cool woman who enjoys mechanical knowledge, has a Porsche and seems cool, question becomes who isn't?

I love you guys

Oh btw, getting my wheels balanced fixed my shake. Got up to about 100 and didn't realize is as it wasn't shaking like it did a few days ago. 55$ well spent I say!
