New member, new car.
Hi all - I have been lurking for a couple of months now while I found the right car but on Monday of this week I took the plunge as the Boxster S i had been tracking dropped into the price range I wanted.
Here she is....
P-Car...
2002 S, 50K miles, silver on black, displacing this from garage (big car gets to sit on the driveway)
A8...
This seems like a good group, I think I will hang out a while 
Gareth

Welcome neighbor to the West. This forum is one of the most informative of the various ones I belong to for the different "toys" I've had over the years.
Good luck with your new toy.

Welcome!
I think we may know some of the same people. I was looking through your Flikr album and saw some cars I know. I'm friends with the owner of the Imola B5 S4 race car. Also I've taken a spin around Second Creek in the Caterham and Pueblo in the Atom. I saw another B5 S4 with an Avalon plate. I've been friends with the owner of Avalon for several years.
I see you also have an A8 and lived in Parker. I lived in Parker for a while, but now am in Littleton. You spend any time on QuattroWorld?

Thanks for the welcome.
Pat - yes I think we know some of the same people. Zev is the owner of the blue S4 and he took me round HPR in the early summer (after England lost to Germany in the world cup) at a Lotus day.
I also know know Mark at Autoworks Colorado who has maintained my A8, I need to head down there and drive the Boxster that he dropped the 3.6 in. Did you try it?
Finally, I do frequent QW on the D2 A8/S8 forum as well as the Rocky Mountain forum. I think I have seen you post regularly there prior/post to selling your S4.
Are you looking at any track time with the Porsche club? They had a DE day coming up in a couple of weeks at HPR.
Cheers
Gareth
