51 and bought my slightly used '03-S 4 years ago. Had Triumph sports cars my entire driving life life until 2 years ago. Wanted a better handling, faster car that was invented after cup holders and heated seats ;-). Love driving the Porsche.

Waited too long
I am 67 now and when I got my first Porsche - a 2001 Base Boxster. Shouldn't have waited so long. It is a fine car. Although I've never been without a sports car. Had a trouble free first generation RX-7. After that car I decided I wanted a sports car that went VROOM instead of WHIRL. Then I had two Jaguar XKEs. Talk about maintenance and problems. Compared to them the Boxster is a breeze.

I remember reading an article “Who’s Who” in “Modern Spies Magazine" that your DOB is March 25th 1965.

46?..I think?
Hi All, this is my first Post I think I'm 46... just had B-Day in April...so still too soo to sink in yet. Been reading this forum since December ( when I found the Boxter I wanted ) didn't get it till mid April... Great Forum.. I read something everyday... trying to get my car back as close to new as possible so I'll have more than a few questions, hope thats ok.
No Porsche Dealer up here... but there is one Great privately owned shop, that Knows Porsches inside & out "TJ'S" so I'm lucky i that respect. So Hello from Wayyyyy up North in Newfoundland Canada.

Re:.. Targa...
If you mean watching... then yes.....but if you mean racing...lol...No..... I think the Targa is not for me... not yet anyways...lol... this is my First Boxster... and although I know the roads and the actual Targa Circuit up here very well... I'm pretty sure it would end up badly for the car... ( someone put and Enso F-Car ) in the drink last year up here... and lot's of bottomed out cars every year... all love it though. I've had a few RX'7s ( 81 & 84 Targa ) over the years...and one year I was tempted to look into it... but chickened out...lol... In a perfect world.. I will get my current 986 to where I want it.... then i will buy another P-Car... maybe a 911, and give it a go...lol... Mine Boxster is in getting a full detail job done on it right now.... then it's off to the mechanic to get the suspension looked at, and a newly developed Idling issue looked into : (
