I bought my wife her own 993 cab -- she doesn't have to ride with me in the boxster.

I will say tho -- that when I did replace the stock S suspension with a SPB suspension,
after a couple laps on track she commented how much better it drove!

Track car or not -- since I do drive it on the street or sitting on grid in Texas -- I'm all for keeping the AC and dealing with the extra weight on track!
