that's pretty cool! you even post a picture of your user name..hehehehe!
since you've mentioned local boxster owners, do they still exist? if they do, i want to know when and where do they meet. I don't mind going to some other Porsche runs but there's only like 2 or 3 Boxster out of 30.
the background looks so familiar

This picture was taken by Dan Feinberg (MMD) of one of those cars that day. Car was owned by Jay.
Back then we had an active group of about 220 local owners, and lots of local events. Dan started calling me Tool Pants and the others followed, including the mechanics and staff at my local dealership.
Many years later I went on international Boxster message boards and continued to use the name Tool Pants. Pants in Europe has a different meaning.
I still meet with new local owners to help them with their Boxsters, like in my office parking lot a lunch time. They don't seem to remember my real name so sometimes I am called Tool Pants to my face by a new owner.
