My preference is to leave my Boxster stock but your preference may be different so have a good time with it. That's what these cars are for - to enjoy, not to evangelize that everyone should do what I do.



Rant over.

This thread has been completely irrelevant (for the reasons you stated) since the first post.

Who cares, it's your time and money.. Well said

I guess I'm the old man modder cause I bought my '99 Box, with 74K miles, at 62 and drove the piss out of it on track, AX and twisty back roads. After a year I put the LN IMS and updated RMS in then went to the ROW M030 suspension, big red S brakes, GT3 air ducts, EVOM CAI, Fabspeed headers, Dansk Sport exhaust and a whole host of mods to lighting and interior. My last two mods are a GAAH glass window top and 18" Carrera wheels. My Box has gone from outlaw look back to clean and slightly stock look. Age has nothing to do with how one feels about something or their passion to create a unique and individual whatever (in this case a car) for themselves. Keep On Boxsterin'.

No, you are irrelevant
You come off like a spoiled littlie brat who's Daddy bought him a sports car

The OP was simply making an observation that a lot of new members seen to want to do all kinds of "improvements" to their cars before they really even learn what their car is capable of. I do believe he made a point of not calling anyone out, nor did he rag on anything you were doing

Maybe its the video game generation, I don't know.

Give it a rest and the people here will be more likely to help you
Keep up the attitude and you will get little or no help

BTW, did you check to see if both rear fog lights work?

I don't generally respond to posts and enjoy reading all the great info and comments, but every now and then , well....

You are just mad because you're probably twice my age and still paying for your Boxster. Probably have economic issues by the way you refer to me.

Anyways.


Regarding real info:

I am working on converting the rear fog lights to extra brake lights. So they light up with the brake. A mod that will last until the new lights arrive.
Kinda useless because I just spent $400 on led tail lights, but fun.

I bought these 🏻️

You really are a punk ass kid aren't you
It would not be hard to be twice the age you act since that is 2 years old

While it really is none of your business I have been retired for a while and I paid cash for my Boxster and bought it new.

I worked hard and made my money. You will never learn the true value of things when they are given to you

Learn some manners little boy

You just keep proving how immature you are

Yea, I'm running low on cash, I may need to sell off my DB9 as well

I have nothing to be miserable about.

That's why you should of set your life to receive residual income on a daily basis. That way you will not sell your toys.

sucks for you..


Perfect tip for young folks:

Ensure you make a living without having to work.
Own real state and rent it or something that brings you cash and it's a common denominator.

Food, electricity, telecommunications and rent are just ways to set your future where you receive $$ on a daily basis with little to no management.

So you guys don't sell your cars once cash is out
