Im the new owner of a 99 silver on red Boxster. I love the color combo and if its good enough for James Dean its good enough for me.
My first mod when I have some money is the m-030 sport suspension.

The car is at Sunset Porsche in Beaverton OR. Now I just have to find a shipper to get it from there to Chicago. If anyone knows of a reasonable shipper please let me know.

Here is a link to pics.

Congrats! Another silver boxster in chicago

Where in the city are you located?

Driving it is a great way to get to know the car! I picked mine up in California and drove it back to Montreal. Guess it depends on whether you like road trips or not, and how much time you can afford. If you're on the interstate, it's probably not worth the effort. But if you have time for some detours, well that's more like it!

I actually have some time, but short on funds.
Working on a car is a great way to get to know it too, but not on the side of a highway between Portland and Chicago. lol

If the car breaks down near my home I can park it for awhile if I cant pay to fix it right away, but if Im 2k miles out and something happens, Im over a barrel.
That's my biggest concern.
Weather is secondary concern.
Driving is fun though.

A real shame that a helpful place like this would make you afraid to drive a near perfect Boxster home 2k miles.

It should be set to take you almost anywhere in the US of A, without even a hiccup for quite a while.
