This my first time posting a pic. So, this is more of a test for me than anything. Sorry, if it goes wrong.

The picture looks fine. The car is great looking. I like your wheels. They're different.

I'm a little concerned about the crime scene tape in the background, though. You live in a rough neighborhood or what?

Actually, they are brand new take-offs from an 06 S Boxster. I picked them up pretty cheap and was ecstatic about it!

986 S with 18" Turbo II wheels

just purchaed a 986 S with 47K on the clock. first thing on my mind was how much I liked the Turbo II wheels. so put on Turbo II wheels - 18" with 8 J x 18 ET 50mm offset and 225/40 ZR 18 tires and 10 J x 18 ET 47mm with 265/35 ZR 18 offset . Attached some pictures....

got the wheels at http://www.wheeldynamics.net/ in LA. Carlos is the owner and a very nice guy to deal with. I would highly recommend it. wheels and tires $1500, gave me $400 credit for my 17" S wheels so $1,100 net cost.

Waiting for Cargraphic exhaust with 2 x 89mm tips and ECU tuning. will post pictures

Maybe a little too much contrast

Just upgraded/side-graded from a 2002 WRX to a 2001 Boxster S. I am really enjoying the different speed characteristics of the NA engine, not enjoying the "thigh" bolsters. Love the car.

Beautiful car!

I like the white with grey top.

What year is it? I've only seen black or body color side vents. Yours appear to be a different color.

Thank you for all the compliments. The car is incredible and I'm loving every second I'm in it.

The interior is a cross between a Burnt Orange and Red. The interior is one of the key components that had me sold. It also has a white hardtop but It wasn't on in any of the photos.
