Pastel Yellow. Not my favorite color. I sold it and now it's a spec boxster.
I wish the boxsters in the background showed up better. There's a speed yellow, arena red and ocean jade blue behind it.

it's pretty rare i hear.. never seen another one in person and there are quite a few Porsches in Miami. when washed & waxed and in the right light it looks like a million bucks!

i always said i wont buy a car that doesnt make me look back when i walk away but this one makes me stare

hehe! no story as i haven't abused the Boxster (in that way )
that photo was taken on the last floor of my office parking garage and those are just the lines that mark the spots. but there are A LOT of good stories in that parking garage. it has a wide open slippery spot on the top where i used to donut the hell out of my old S2000 and absolutely every rental i ever got my hands on (dont tell the building association or i'm parking on the street! ).

also, its where i get my "echo loudness" fix at night when there are no cars and i have full access to my personal playground and mini auto x course.

Speak of the devil. I checked the mail today and found a letter from Clemson stating I have provisional acceptance! Not bad to know you are accepted to a school with a less than 50% take rate without even applying.

Zenith Blue is a really attractive colour. You don't see many (any?) around where I live. It's either silver, black or the very occasional red.

Congrats Big Jake!

Does Clemson have a Data Scientist degree? Anaylitics is the new hot button and people with this knowledge will have lots of opportunities available to them. You might be able to parlay a DS education into a sports team job, or even onto a race team. Just to show you how far things are progressing, Univ of Neb just hired a Data Scientist to analyze all their sports teams, but will concentrate on football. Moneyball, here we come.

Very very cool. Your folks have to be damn proud of you.... I know we are!

Now, IMHO, based on your post.... I would suggest you get your JD after your undergrad or after you MBA. A law degree will open up a ton of doors to you and give you a lot of flexibility in your career options. I am envious.... oh to be young again and have so much ahead of you. Enjoy the journey and don't rush through it (my mistake).

Now, back to the OP;
