At the time I had 2- SVT Lightnings, a 93 (which I still have, have modified heavily and have had since new) and at that point a mint 02. The conversation started something like "So you remember the truck" which was followed by " .......what do you mean "remember" the truck?" and you can pretty much imagine the rest.
Of course what didnt make things better is I worshiped that M3, parked it in the garage along with my 93 Lightning leaving her car and my DD in the driveway in rain, snow, heat, etc. It never went out in rain or winter and, oh yah she never got to drive it. Looking back I see maybe 1 or 2 tiny mistakes I might have made, LOL!
Luckily Ive grown up alot in the years since.
Shes definitely expecting a new car, when she occasionally asks if there's a new car in the garage she seems shocked when I tell her no. Its almost become a hobby car shopping at this point...
I've been giving more thought to trading the 330 and given how hard it is to find a good Boxster S it's got me thinking of upping the budget and looking at M3's and even 911's. More power / speed, more practical (if any sports car can be practical, though an M3 sedan would qualify except for MPG) more prestige but I dont think either are quite the distilled essence of driving that the Boxster's are. Base models are plentiful, but I think were at the point now where its been warm for a few months and prices have peaked, dealers are looking at them seeing only 3-4 months of summer left so some deals are popping up. Ive got 2 out of state dealers trying to top each other on certified 08's that are in the very low 30's. So where are the CPO'ed $35k S's hiding?
