My personal ride
Jorge,
This photo may not be worthy of your post's intent, but it is a picture of my 2000 S, taken near Peggy's Cove, Nova Scotia, last fall while on a mini-vacation. Ocean blue, graphite grey interior w/ deviating carpet and carbon accents, and a Metropol blue top. TechArt aerokit and lowering via H&R sport springs help distinguish it from the usual (?) Boxster S. John |
What a beauty !! I kinda wish I had gone with a darker color.

Wow, beautiful car.

Hey Frankster!
Very nice car, although I don't especially care for the wing. So where are you in Germany? I happen to be a native of Munich.
Congrats on the car, truly a beautiful machine you have there. |
@mjbliemel
oh no, thats not mine :) we don't have those rear bumpers and blades in germany. I live in Frankfurt. So you are a german too? thats nice. I just ordered a Boxster S. But I'm still not sure which colors to take. But I like sealgrey alot. AS is also beautiful, but here in germany over 50% of all new cars (not only porsche) are silver. best regards, frank |
AS and SG
Yes, both AS and SG are great colors. Tough decision ahead of you. I did notice a lot of silver cars in Germany on my recent trip there, very popular color there. Keep us posted on which color you end up getting on the new S and congrats on the new Boxster S!
|
Recently in europe (5 countries) and noticed most sports cars (P-cars, enzos, BMWs, Audi, etc.) seemed to favor Silver/greys, reds, and a lot of blacks.
Of course, I am partial to LB (see above!!!) |
Not nearly as badass as the others, but here you go.

hi all.. Well here is a pic of my Boxster. Its not an S however outruns a stock S without hesitation.
if you want to consider my car for the site I can try to provide a better pic, atleast outside of the garage it was taken in. http://www.jhmsolutions.com/2.jpg |
Beautiful car -- love the front bumper cover!!
Are you considering Litronics and clear side-markers? What are your tweaks? |
send a picture. that other bum only paid a buck for the photo :)
Nice car. whats in it as far as engine mods? |
In the last year or so I have been fortunate enough to get a partial sponsorship from a local porsche specialist. I get all my work performed by a shop named Porsche Pitsop in Alexandria, VA.
My tweaks are as follows: Suspension: Adjustable Bilstein Racing shocks. H&R springs. front and rear Sportech Sway Bars. Engine: TTP airbox. Wide Throttle body. Installed Iridium Spark Plugs(provides for better/faster cylinder firing timing) Had ECU flashed/reprogrammed by a prosche engineer in Germany. All done from Dyno results of my exact car. So no generic chips or programs. Exhaust: TTP custom 2 3/4" Headers (install requires removal of front two Cats and relocations of O2 sensors). Next TTP custom 2 3/4" matching pipes from headers to rear Cats to provide better airflow. Replaced factory Cats with a High Flow Cat Gemballa twin pipe muffler completely polished. (looks and growls fantastic) Transmission: B&M Short Shifter. Body: Handmade carbon fiber GT2 front nose The shop I have my partial sponsorship with is hooking me up with a deal from TTP for twin 14 lbs bolt on turbos. Hoping to get that at end of this summer. And to answer someones question yes I plan on replacing front lights and going with Litronic lights. i already have side markers and new rear taillights( the tinted black and red tailights) |

Sweet ride! Which maker is the front bumper from? I'm considering on which one to replace mine with. Thanks |

xxxboxster, beautiful car man. What is that, an 03 or 04 S? I see you have the Gt3 setup like stryke. Anyway, I wan't to put lowering springs on my S and I see that yours is lowered. I think it looks much better lowered and I was wondering how much you dropped it? It looks like a 2 in drop, but I'm not sure. If you don't mind, what is the brand of spring you used and how much were they? There are springs in tweeks called Weltmeister(?) and they drop it about 1 inch which is about perfect for my needs. The price is right too, and that's always nice. Anyone have any experiece/knowledge about these springs in tweeks? One more thing, how bad have you bottomed out or scraped? I assume you have to take alot of care to keep from scraping. Miller, nice ass pics as well, how much is yours lowered? What brand of springs?
|
hey Adam, thanks for the common !! :D
my car is a 03, is lower with sparco spring (the brand that sells seat and stuff) , in fact I do have another set if you want, it was suppose for my friend but he don't want it after he bought it. drop me a email if you need one. |
Thanks for the offer, but I'm concerned that the springs may lower my ride to much. I only wanna drop it about an inch. From the looks of it I would say your car is lowered about 2 in, but I could be wrong. How much do the springs lower the car? I'm afraid that would serverly limit my driving to smooth flat roads only. Do you have scraping probs? Did you remove the plastic stone guard in front of the front tires? I looked at them awhile back and they are only 3-4inches off the ground now with the stock setup. I assume you must remove them to prevent them from scraped off? I'm also concerned about the ride quality. I could handle stiffer springs than what's stock, but I don't want a bone jarring teeth rattling ride on every road that doesn't resemble the autobahn. How is the ride? Much stiffer than stock?
|
it rides ok... no much different than stock.. but I change it right after I have the car... like 2 days max.. so I don't recall how's the stock ride...
and regarding the stock mud guard, I have it removed because of the side skirt. I would say it lower about 2" but I don't think you going like it with only 1" lower, there is not much different ... 2" drop looks prefect with 18" wheels on.. |
Nice ride! I almost painted the targa I rebuilt/restored/modified in gray. The painter had Gran Prix white on hand and gave me a deal. Did Kenisis do the wheel painting? Adam, I put Weltmeister sways front/rear on the targa. Handles nice.
|
xxxboxster, how bad do you scrape slopes/uneven roads/driveways in that thing?? Umm, also, xxx, I did a google search on "sparco springs" and all I got was hood springs. Are you sure your springs are made by spaco? Has anyone else heard of sparco lowering springs? Thanks for the help PF.
|
hey,
i put bilstein coil-over adjustable racing shocks and springs and titanium strut bars, front and rear. handles great. takes hairpins like MaD! i think mine lowered about 2-2.5 inches in the end. I am really careful so havent scratched anything. Just gotta pull into parking lots and driveways at an angle :) |
Adam.. yeah they're sparco, they use to sell lowering springs for some cars.... most of the model is not in the US.
just drop me an emial if you have other question |
Here's my Boxie

My last 5 cars (not including the beaters) have been black. It doesn't get any better than a shiny black car during sundown. Unfortunately, the only pics I have so far is during the day. Can't wait to try out my new camera when the weather clears up.

What a shine, Lux...what is that front bumper? Your car is hot. :)
|
I agree, very nice....

you're quite welcome to modify or use any of these, so long as you don't mind the RHD !
