bmx,

Don't feel bad ! My car is sitting at home in the garage as well.

I just got back from lunch and it is definitely top down weather today

Don't worry - they are still predicting the showers to hit at 3 pm...

Nick

Thank you.
Amen to that!!! Given that Boxster S's are half the price here as they are back home I'm very grateful to those who supply the US market with cheap, low mileage 2nd hand P's.

I love my '02 Box S so much if I don't drive it one day, I drive it twice as much the next!

Meerzee: You are also contributing to the low milleage used Tahoe and Mercedez markets?? You are overly generous!
I just can't convince myself to absorb the high depreciation of a new car. Unlike my dad who insists on a new car every 3 years. And he doesn't have the coin to afford it so he buys in the low end simple cars with no options, just to be able to say he bought a new car. I respect that. I just prefer, or have to, for lack of a huge bank account myself, get the absolute most for my money because cars are the worst investment. With the canadian dollar so high and the huge discrepancy between US and Canadian car prices, we're suddenly freakin rich all of a sudden. But yes, we have our 4 month storage time in winter or course. You can't win em all.

Cheers to drivers, even the low milleage ones

I contribute to the high mileage new tundra and lexus cause, while also contributing to the low mileage old (never will be sold) boxster cause.

Amen to driving though! If conditions and necessities were different, I would drive the boxster daily!
