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.

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.

Went to Bremerton Raceway Park for Driver Skills day. What a great adventure. Look for an article in Spiel (PCNWR mag) soon...

Took the ferry over to the Olympic Peninsula

Only pics I got taken of me actually running....
Advanced Slalom...This wasn't a timed event (none of them were) but I managed to only kill 1 cone in 5 runs and was doing about 40 at the end before turning back to run again. I was far from the fastest, but it was a blast!!
