First Road Trip in Boxster

[kindlethespirit]

This past week I traded my 03 BMW Z4 tiptronic for my new 03 Boxster S 6spd.

I was just getting tired of the Z4 and I couldn't take the constant rattles and the bone jarring ride. I loved my Z4 and the car was extremely reliable. The past 2 years saw only 3 thousand miles and I just didn't enjoy the car anymore.

So, I found a beautiful Boxster S in triple black with 27K miles. What a joy this car is to drive. Not only does it handle brilliantly, but the ride is great and compliant.

We drove the car from Scranton, Pa to Avalon NJ. The drive would normally be about 4 hours, but with the shore traffic, the drive was about 5 hours. I never felt fatigued other than my leg getting a little tired from the clutch. I haven't owned a manual drive car in years.

All in all, the Boxster is just an awesome drive and every morning when the alarm goes off, I can't wait to drive it.
