I Finally Got a Porsche
 

About a month ago I got a '97 Boxster with 60,000 miles!

Since I bought her, I put on new Michelins, replaced the rotors and pads, put in a new stereo and, just this morning, added some decals down the sides. Thought I'd share...

Looks great. Enjoy! I just got mine in December and am really having fun.

That 2nd photo makes the Boxster look like a 914 to me...anyone else think so?

Congrat's and looks great! I love the side stripe - classic Porsche.

Looks great! Welcome to the forum! What kind of stereo?

Thanks for the compliments... I'm pretty friggin' excited!

I put a semi-high-end Sony in. Just running the Sony through the dash speakers (no door speakers in the car) already sounds 100% better. When I installed it, I ran speaker wire to the back of the car so I can figure out how I want to set that up in the near future. I have a couple of ideas I think will work.

Congratulations on your 986. Which Sony did you go with?

Sony player... CDXGT56UI

Nice looking car. I like the decals. Where did you get it? How much? Was it hard to install?

Thanks.

I got the decals on eBay from a seller in England. They were only $40 (1/3 of the price of anything I found in the US). They weren't too hard to install but you have to be pretty meticulous.

The seller's e-mail address is roy924gt@btinternet.com

Congrats on the purchase!
I've seen those stickers on ebay.
It looks really good on your car.

Mine came from eBay as well...$35 shipped from US seller. Very nice quality with zero defects ;)
I used a laser level to make sure that they were dead on straight. Probably spent about 45 minutes on each decal.

I hope this isn't breaking any rules, but the seller was buynsell888. He's shut down until April 20th, though.

oops... hope i was allowed to post that seller's info

like this one although yours is probably in better shape

they are the modenr day 914 reincarnation...... now if they could get the 928 right


*cough* *cough* Horrible Panamera

I just saw the new Panamera at the NYAS and it is getting better with the more sleek rear end. It seemed lower too. If they do a 2-door it will be a 928 part 2 for sure.

The new GT3 was to die for too. :)
