Ty all. I was unaware there was a glass top avail. I didn't think there would be since the plastic window folds when top is down. It really bugs. Its no pinhole. It shattered like glass. I'll be looking for one now. Tax returns are gonna be spent fast.

Pelican is where I read the how to on doing the alternator. Unlike what I've read on the forums about people having issues with the bushing being rusted and not budging, mine came loose with two wacks. I did notice some oil on top of block. Apparently the alternator sucked up a bird... There were feathers stuck in it. Odd.

Now now. No need to get hurt over it. It is a boxster. Coming from mild to high HP drag cars onto a daily driven boxster. It took driving it to change my view on the car. Weather you believe it or not, boxsters are the laughed at Porsches in my world. I have been ragged on ever since buying it. Someone even bought me a purse for my birthday as a gag gift. I really don't care. I love it and my eyes are pealed on the road for any other boosters on the road wherever I go. I now look through the pics of all your cars and it is awesome. Sexy lil beast. My last cars make and model holds the world record for fastest and highest HP 4cyl on the planet. But its also one of the most hated cars and I've never gotten as much attention as I do now.

I was at a light the other day jamming out to some old rock and didn't notice some really beautiful blonde country girls were trying to catch my attention till they drove away. Lol

No disrespect intended. I an super happy with my purchase.

No disrespect intended.
"Boxsters are the laughed at Porsches in my world". Mindless testosterone jacked morons tend to laugh at anything beyond their comprehension (see "simpletons").
It's blatantly obvious that those you speak of in "your world" are not educated beyond the front stoop of their double-wide.
"Me go in straight line fast!" and "Turn left!". Takes some real geniuses, eh?

(Disrespect to those types is definitely intended)


Aside from that, welcome...I suppose.

Your friends rock.

Anytime I end up going with a (male) friend to Griot's here Tacoma, there are truck loads of very non-appropriate jokes made about 2 males in Boxster. I will skip the details to keep myself from being punted by this forum.

Welcome aboard and I admire your thick skin with your friends. The car is ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC. The image...maybe not so much. Think of it as holding your super-model girlfriend's purse as she tries on lingerie. Oh if they only knew.....
