That's good!!!

But seeing as 'Mach Schnell' means 'Hurry Up', wouldn't it be better as a windsheild decal visor in a mirror image so that people could read it in their rear view mirror? Kind of like have AVO VOM on...

Do you have a pic of the badge on your spoiler?

You were talking about a woman bent over with boxster shorts on right? :D

I like this idea. Did you install the original badge on the spoiler? I was wondering if the thickness of the badge clears everything.

is debadging = blasphemy?

I have a black S. The Boxster badge is silver and the S is red. I like the look but because to car is black, I spray wax a lot to touch-up and the badge is a PITA.

I think debadging would also...

Good point. Carmax 30 day says it covers leaking shocks. Both PPI's were not concerned about the wet strut or the wettness at the back of the engine. If Carmax fixes the clutch, then I'm sure they...

Carmax is not known for lowering their price, so it will be interesting to see what they do. If they want to drop it by $3k, would that be enough to do the clutch, IMS LN upgrade, and RMS?

I did another PPI

I did another PPI today because I suspect the accuracy of the first one. The new PPI say that I need a new clutch. Bummer!

So now we'll see if Carmax will fix it on their 30 day warranty. The...

Dealers in California say that due to privacy laws, thay can't reveal who the previous owner is. So they can't include records because that would reveal the PO. Smoke screen? I don't know.

PPI'd a 04 Box S with 6spd today, but it left me with some questions.

It has 44k miles, was a one owner car but I don't know who, nor can I find previous service records; I'm still searching.

Yes, incorrectly focused HID's are a pain. It's important to have a shield in front of the HID bulb that creates a cut-off beam pattern, and prevents direct glare from the bulb itself. From what I've...

Active Brake Differential

I was looking at a dealer listing for a 06 base box that has Active Brake Differential. I think this would be more important than PSM. Does anyone know if the 04 S comes with an Active Brake...

That would be too funny if it wasn't, but I'll check the central rad to make sure. It has a six speed with the S dash badge and red brake calipers and cross drilled rotors (see attachment).

Litronics

I understand that Litronics has the leveling feature and projector lens. Other than that, is the light output (lumens) superior to a HID kit?

cruise control

I'm ok as a DIY'er, so as long as the engine doesn't have to be dropped or the parts cost more than a few hundred, then this is a possible future project.

"Somebody Stop Me!!"

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger on an 04 S manual, triple black, with 44k miles for $22599 at Carmax. Ok, I don't think I want to be stopped, unless you think I'm making a mistake.

The car...

The 10 spoke is a 17". I'm not sure about the 5 spoke yet.

19-21 lbs? I guess the days of 11 lb Miata wheels is over. I know, apples vs oranges.

They're both from Carmax listings. They say they're both 17" but they say, "Actual features of this car may differ." So I guess I should call them.

Which wheel is lighter?

Can you tell me the weights of these wheels? I like the 5 spoke better; mainly because it looks easier to clean, and it looks lighter than the 10 spoke. I'm sure there is a list of wheel weights...
