Damn do I live my Boxster

Here is the setting,Sacramento,midnight,just off work,60 degrees(I know warm for this time of year). The security guard stares as I lower my top,I gently look back with a **************** faced grin. Fire her up and all the memories from fall with the top down run through my head. With the grin still on my face my offramp comes up and I swerve left a lane to continue the drive. I drive endlessly down the freeway for awhile only to look at my watch and realize it is 12:30 Christmas Eve morning. I reluctantly pull off on the nearest offramp and head back home. I love my Boxster,and I feel as a Boxster enthusiast I am obligated to share this story with other enthusiast. Anyone ever have any Boxster expierence like this?

That is a very good story and well written so I could really visualize. Had you thrown santa into the mix you could have made it a Christmas story for us older kids

I haven't shared this same experience yet but I will be able to in about four months when I get mine! Can't wait!

Enjoy!

Yes, on certain days here in SOCAL, there is nothing like a drop top ride up the PCH past So. Calrsbad Beach.

Heaven, simply heaven.
