Gilbert,

Sounds like we have a few Black Boxsters now in the club. We really need to start meeting at Memorial park at least every month to get to know everyone. I am sure if a few Boxsters are in the parking lot other will follow...

Randall, Have you found any other new members that are willing to meet with other Boxsters owners?

What does everyone think of the NEW Cayman S?

You know, I visit with about one boxster owner every other month and a vast majority of them look at me like a calf at a new gate when I ask them if they want to drive around the hills of Brenham or meet other boxster owners in town. They're not passionate owners. It's just the next car they decided to drive. I gotta say that it really disappoints me.

I think we can easily put together something that the local PCA will advertise for free if we schedule it. They like it when others get busy with meetings.

Randall,

Looks like we need to attend a PCA DE at TWS to see how many Boxster are attending as they must be from or close to the Houston area? I guess I will have to agree with you on the fact that the owners are just driving a Porsche and could care less about a club.

Um, you think we need to drop $225 just to meet other PCA boxster owners?

How about I email the PCA rep and ask him to email all the boxster owners when we decide to meet for a beer somewhere or make another run? Free.

Can you tell I'm broke these days? I'd love to do a DE and learn from you in particular, but my 45k living and dining room renovation complete with foundation work and plasma TV has my wife's panties in a twist. No Boxster mods or trips to the track for the rest of the year is what she said the other day. (Not that I do everything she tells me to do or not do, but I must say she's the cash-wise part of the marriage, so I listen when she makes comments like this because she's right!)

Somebody PLEASE feel sorry for me

Boxster owners

Roth; I take it you too have a black one.

How many black one's to we have so far?

I think when the weather clears u p and we can drop our tops we should meet at memorial. I think some of these boxster owners do not appreciate the "machinery" that they posess.

The new Cayman will be my next vehicle...lol.

My Boxster

hello my fellow Houston Boxster owners.

I finally got my vehicle and I have to say it's one hell of a machine. I got it last Thursday and I have been having a blast. Still trying to get used to her and little by little learning her "gadgets"..lol.

I got a 1999 Boxster with the front and back light upgrades, it actually looks like a 2003 and no one can really tell the difference.. Unless; your a boxster owner yourself. It has 49,000 miles with the warranty upgrade to 100k.

It's black, black top with tan interior. Of course it had to be a stick. Yes, the women love it..

Maybe one you can help me. I went to the store earlier today and the little wing tail that pops up when your going a certain limit popped and it stayed up. From my understanding it lowers when your speed lowers. Is this an option to keep it up? did i press something that I wasn't supposed to? Is it some kind of mechanical failure? can you help?

Gilbert

Ps. I will take some pics get them posted.
