It was nice to meet you two. Glad they worked out. Have you posted a picture of your car yet? I could only find the 19" wheel ad.

Had a great time meeting two Boxster owners tonight.

Got to drive a Panamera GTS spiritedly.

Fun time.

The wheels are sold.

Have you guys sprayed the engine bay at the car wash? I have a 60,000 mile car with a dusty engine. I've been afraid to damage something with soapy spray.

Thanks! Hmm. I felt like it was finished. That's usually never the case I guess. I'm still in the first month of ownership. Will have to research.

Used a clay bar, scratch remover and waxed it. It doesn't look new. Not bad for a 20 year old car.

Thanks! It seems like mine blows out the primary vents regardless. I'll test tomorrow.

This is much easier than the iDrive vent chooser though.

Can you please tell me what this button does?

I've tried downloading manuals. I've googled a few times. I can't figure out what the globe button does on my AC control panel.

Thanks.

Not to hijack this thread, I hit redline once in mine and it felt like I hit an ignition rev limiter. Is that what happened or were my valves floating (I hope not)?

That's insulting to SUVs :)
