Houston

Yeah,

The weather out here is pretty nice but it won't last that long as CA weather does.

Any thoughts on my issue from my previous email?

If you pressed the toggle down by the fuse box.

The rule the Boxster uses for lowering the fin is a bit of a mystery to me. Seems to me it will give me a turn the egine off and one start up before it takes over on the raising and lowering of the fin.

If you did not touch this switch, then you need to have it looked at by a Porsche mechanic. I know Porsche takes the fin position very seriously as it effects the handling of the car.

Sorry could not be more help

Gilbert, you REALLY need my mechanic. Don't take that car to a dealership. PM me if you don't have one yet.

1 more Boxster in Houston

Just picked up my new '05 in Austin (yesterday) and had the most incredible drive back to Houston. Top down the whole way, with a smile from ear to ear. I've been following the Houston threads for awhile and am curious to see if a Houston club is in the works. Any meets or spring drives planned?
