Feeling guilty for not driving my Boxster - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

Okay, I'm feeling guilty today... I only drive my Boxster on Friday's (during the week) unless it's going to rain. Well, it's going to rain tomorrow and I left her in the garage this morning. As I pulled out in my Audi I saw her sitting there looking sad... Here's the thing... I have about a dozen large pumpkins behind here waiting to be carved for the weekend. I was lazy and didn't want to move them. Now I can't drive her again until the weekend... I've only driven her a few times in the last few weeks.
Am I lame?

Yes!

JK!

I drive once a week too, when it is not raining, but I managed to do 10,000 miles since late April!

bmx,

Yes you should be ashamed of yourself

I drive mine unless the roads are wet, knowing that in a couple of months the roads will be covered in snow and salt and my poor little Boxster will be sitting in the garage on the charger

Today is a beautiful day, and it is supposed to rain Friday and Saturday

Regarding the pumpkins, I have a one car garage so every morning I have to pull out two cars and park them in the street to get the Box out ( although we are planning on buying a new house next year with a three car garage

).

I drive mine rain or shine!

How could you?

And it is such a great car!

Not me, I will spend more time cleaning it after a rain than I will driving it. Unless I get caught while out, my girl stays in the garage for sunny fridays, and nice weekends.

Yeah, black cars and rain don't mix well - hence no more driving when the roads are wet ( although I doubt Ocean Blue is much better

)

Yep, only drive her on Fridays and weekend if the weather is perfect.

Exactly....She will be driving tomorrow to work and then hopefully to the airport to pickup my daughter on Saturday. She is 11 and she hasn't seen it yet and she is definitely NOT spoiled (unlike my nephew --- see prior rant!) - so it should be fun!
