Hey, genius, the Boxster S has a 3.4l while the non-S maintains its 2.7l.

Couple questions about Porsche...

1) 2.7l on the Boxster. Porsche is still managing to squeeze out power from this relatively small engine, but why not increase displacement a little? It's amazing they are holding their own in this...

Congratulations. Wait, what does that prove again? That they sell a lot of their Boxsters? You can look at an inventory of a given dealer at any given time and one product might be less available...

Do you think I should take her in just in case? Time sensitive matter?

CEL light -- what could it be?

2 days ago, a CEL light turned on. The message said to take it to the workshop.


Wow, 2 auto-xes this week end.

LOL, the funny thing is that with the green stripes, the red calipers really do stand out.



Keep it till you get tired of it, I suppose. I don't have a better solution.

Z06? There are so many relatively inexpensive mods for a C6, I don't think I could ever consider a Z06.


Yes, the frame is different, but it shouldn't make a huge difference.

I would swap the tires out just to save weight and invest in a little tire plugging kit.



I'm glad you like your C6. I drove on myself and was very impressed.

I am looking at the appearance as a whole. By itself, the wheel looks good, but when you look at it on the whole car, it's not as prominent. (the calipers)

True, but the NSX is notorious for not having changed its basic design in 15 years of production. If the NSX does it, it's an absolute necessity for any other car :D

I don't see the calipers. I don't see any of the things you mentioned. All I see is a green car with black wheels and a red stripe.


I'm pretty sure that's what everyone else sees too.

Why red on your wheels but no green? Green...

Here's what I recommend: Get rid of that red and replace it with seagreen so it matches your car color. That will look very, very good.




I hope it's reversible.
