New to Porsche

[SeanZ4]

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.

Offended also…. I'll give you a chance to redeem yourself. For now I've written you off too. I think you meant "whether" not "weather". Stay in school kid.

I've come to this party late, but I find it ironic that you point out a typo/mistake when you obviously don't understand punctuation (commas and ellipsis -- I'll save you the Google, it's the "...").

Anyway, welcome to this forum and congrats on the car. Do be careful though, there is a great deal of sensitivity regarding "girl car" comments...

But don't worry -- I'm pretty sure you can slur all other makes and models, even non-986 Boxsters (especially if they are tiptronics or PDKs)!

Eclipse's are girl cars. Even if they have built engines and huge Turbo chargers. And I owned and built 9. Just got tired of throwing insane amounts of cash in them and not getting from much time with them. I could have bought a house already. I don't care. I see a girl car as a car that catches the girls eye. And so far it is. I watched a video of the 987 box vs matching z4...from top gear? Can't remember but it's a YouTube video under Boxster drift. Lol it was awesome. I love the line about "Its fun to just say 'I own a Porsche'"

I don't mean to offend anyone. Esp since I need to make friends here. This will be my car for the minimum of 4 years till its paid off and I can get into a Cayman S. Saw the new one at the local dealership... I sure felt out of place there. Everyone in suits... 150k cars all over.
