Nice addition! If I had those 3 cars, I would never get anything done around the house (or at work). I would spend all my time driving 1 or the other, or the other.

Welcome to the club!

Watch that dog, he's got that look on his face that those tires look like a good place "to go."

It's so nice to see someone with 911tt's see the benefit of Boxster ownership....

You have one hell of a collection there!

thanks for the compliments guys. The handling of this platform is really fantastic. Cruised around aimlessly with the top down quite a few times this weekend.

Did the de-snork mod today, and have alot of suspension mods planned. My plan is to go to Moton Clubsports with monoballs/GT3 2pc control arms and bumpsteer toe links. I have heard alot of hard-core track guys compare the Boxster handling to a mini-Cup car when prepared as such

Eugene, the car is simply stunning and I look forward to the end results of your vehicle as she will be a livid animal on the track! Great speaking to you the other day, and I am sure you cannot await for the middle of next week to come for your next addition. Godspeed my friend.
