How did you suppress the urge to take her out for at least 30 minutes?

I was thinking of driving up and down the 8 mile Hwy by my house, but I would have had to move my wife's car and for some reason I never feel like doing that. I have a two car garage and a long one car drive way that opens up to two and my wife parks her touareg at the very end. I can't wait to buy a different house with a wider drive way as I have had to valet cars all my life to get my car out of the garage.

I have to do the same thing, it's so annoying

Had a new top installed, replacing old faded gray, with glass black. Looks great. Nice update to an older Boxster S......2000

Pictures... We need pictures!

Brought her to her new home for the first time.. :)

Congrats Bglz and welcome to the forum!

"We"? And that's it? Sheesh...I did mine in under 2 hours :D :p

Also, why so high up?

Finally, a few pics for you, Suffered a stroke in Feb....decided to sell me dd, 06 MX-5, and find an older Boxster. PO had LN retrofit done in Mar 2011. I had the top replaced Monday moving to glass window. Had the wheels powder coated. Discovered "Plasti Dip" from reading posts on this forum, dipped the front grills and center caps.

What's really weird, key motivation was to move to Tiptronic....every day driving....not trying to justify moving away from manual, but in my case I'm pleasantly surprised. When I need my "fix", I take the C4s up to Prescott.

Very nice stable you there Verhag!

I picked my car up at the local dealer after a very scary 3 weeks, me and a lot of other people thought my engine was kaputt. Turns out to be a couple of coil packs were gone. Thanks Larry, my new best friend and THE guy!

I had just finished reading your thread....glad it worked out for. I was feeling your pain reading most suggested diagnosis.

Ordered 1st oil change parts today. Took the road out of Bryce up to Torrey and back once, fabulous drive!

Yes we.
Me and the guy who makes the stripes for a LOT of the pre73s that wear them , and debbie whose car it is .
I'd say it was done in about 30 minutes , but did not time it .
The reason it is so high is that I am experimenting with the design of certain parts of the boxster compared to the older 911 models that these stripes emulate .
At the moment , both sides are different , and I am kinda convinced that one side will be permanent , but might yet change my mind once thevcar is lowered next week .
It may all look very different then !! :D

Just got done giving Sancha a good detail. Used my new pressure washer to get some of the hard to reach places in the wheels. http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1374946777.jpg

Changed the oil for the first time since I got the car. Easy job and no metal in the oil filter.

Took it to defensive driving class, so that my last speeding ticket could be reduced to a parking ticket.

I attended the Porsche's and Pontoons event at High Rock Lake in Lexington, NC. Although, the weather was not great, the cars, food and people were. Anytime you can get that combination together a great time is sure to entail.http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1374996185.jpg

Another picture from Porsche's and Pontoons. Unfortunately, it rained enough that you needed a pontoon, just to get to the event.

Completed headlamp restoration, and when I removed the tape which was to initially protect my paint, I pulled off some clear coat. :eek: Time for a paint job $$

Couple days ago I installed new fuel filter as well as replaced a few of the under body panels.
