I'm a new member and thought I'd start off by saying thank you. This website has a lot of very useful information that helped me in my recent decision to purchase a used 2000 Boxster, not the S model. I've owned many cars and performance motorcycles but this is my first Porsche. I hope to find as much useful info/advice on this site as I can. I also have a 73Cuda that I drag race but the Boxster is going to be my new daily driver.

Welcome to the forum and don't forget to post pics.

congrats on the new wheels! Like you've decided, so have I when I purchased my boxster to have it be a daily driver. Its by far the most entertaining vehicle ive used as a daily driver which ive had many in the short 8 years ive had a license.

Welcome, Pa! :cheers:

Welcome to the board Pa!

I too am a new owner and the advice from 986 hugely affected which car I ended up buying. There's a lot of knowledgable owners here - and I'm sure after some time you and I will both be part of this illustrious group.

Enjoy the new ride, and do post some pix.

Welcome PaP...congrats on fantastic start to a fun auto experience. Where in PA are you located? Always looking for enthusiasts near Philly and we have a fantastic PCA chapter here.

Welcome PaPosche,

I get to drive my 987 daily, and couldn't be happier.

I never did get it how people can have such a great car, and only use it on weekends (not including those who need more than two seats)

ThanX & No cruise control btw
 

ThanX for the warm welcome. I'll be sure to post pics as soon as I get around to taking them. It needs to warm up a little and I want to get some pics with the top down.

stcroixdrew-I live in the capital area of Harrisburg right now but I've been offered a position (transfer) to just outside the Philly area that I'm seriously considering. Will know by the end of the week. That has a lot to do with my decision to get this car. I sold my dually pick up truck to get this car. Gas prices helped me make this decision from getting 9-10mpg in the truck which wasn't making much sense.

The one question I need to find out is how hard it is to install cruise control or where/how much a kit for this mod is? I thought every car now adays had this standard but this car doesn't have it? If I have to hit the turnpike for some longer drives it would be a nice option. Any advice to a previous post about this would be appreciated. I'm not having much luck with any searches.

Welcome to the forum Pa! :cheers:
when i got my box it was the other way around because when i bought it i didnt kno that much about it and since ive stumbled on the foums, im learning stuff everyday
congrats on the buy!

-- i have an 03 986 and it came with cruse control standard.. maybe on ebay or other sale sites there might a kit that is based off the cruse control system that i have. you might have to do some retrofitting to get it to work but i think it would :confused: but it is definitely a good option to have
