I guess I was saying the same thing in a round about way.
I could lower my 06, if I didn't mind it hitting the under nose more than it already does, for about 12oo bucks. I already have lighter, wider and stronger wheels.
The Spyder top just really sucks for an area of the country where I get caught not being able to stop and put up the power top fast enough.
Since the eco melt down and what has happened to the resale/trade value of ALL our cars, there's no way it (or ANY new Boxster/Cayman) is worth my 06 S and 40 grand.

BUt in any case, back to the main question of the thread:

What is that GREAT shifter????

I guess maybe it's the GT3 set-up?

I was also sad to hear my old friend Buddy Kennedy has retired as parts manager at Brumos. He was already parts manager when I crewed on the race team, in 1974! Why leave so soon?? :-) He and his expertise will be missed.
