Are those your wives? Nice chicks, all three of them. (Save the money in your savings account, for when something blows..)

Welcome fellow Austinite!

For a cheap thrill, an ebay-style exhaust is worth it for the grins. I have a 986, but if you want to hear the Topspeed Pro 1 model in person, let me know. It's pretty much the only "cheap" exhaust for the car. Some droning is there, but it's an easily reversible mod. If you need a good and affordable independent mechanic to install some of the mods, also let me know.

MoneyPit,

I would not make any modifications to your Boxster. I think your car is spot on.

I have a 1999 Boxster and the sole modification I've made is to replace the boat anchor of a muffler with an Ebay special. I did replace the 17inch turbo twist OEM wheels with a later model of 17inch OEM wheels. This morning I kicked it down a gear or two in order to pass a van. I pushed it up to over 5500 rpm. In a month shy of four years of ownership I had never gone over 5000 rpm. The sound was music to my ears.

Oh by the way, what is this "Three Sisters" route in the Hill Country?

What route, FM, highway, etc.?
