Is this an active Boxster board?

Maybe this is a stupid question, but I've been looking for a reasonably active Boxster board and haven't really found much. I have found a couple with some activity, but even those have only a few posts a week.

There seem to be more threads here than I've seen so far, so I'm hoping there's a decent level of activity.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Pretty active. Post a question on a new subject (search is your friend) and you should get a reply.

This is the most active, knowledgeable, and enjoyable Boxster forum on the web. Just check-in every day and you will see for yourself.

I'd say this is the most active Boxster forum in the world. The community is great, and very supportive. Most developments for our 986s were made over five years ago, so it may seem like there is nothing currently being made, but that is not true. Because it is winter time, a lot of members have put their cars away for winter and have gone on holiday. During summer, the forum is a lot more active. The cold generally turns people off for wrenching, and our cars are cabriolets for great weather.

I would say if Jake Raby posts photos of his IMS solution on this forum before even his own website, then this should be considered the most active Boxster forum in the world! So much knowledge and help right at the touch of a few computer keys.

I'm a member on 986forum, planet-9, and pelican, this is the best of the three especially if you own a 986 series. Boxster folks in my view are the nicest in the Porsche family. Great knowledge here. I've only been a member two years and have over a 1000 posts (ya I know get a life) and I don't spend any time in the Lounge .

Welcome, you know you now have to post pics and tell us about your car.

Best forum I found.

Great topics, great help, inspiring, and, best of all, owners here do work themselves on their rides! In general Porsche owners (of newer cars) have their cars serviced by others and never get their hands dirty..... Just sayin'

Start posting here, get involved, that makes any forum active.


Enjoy!
