Compliments are amazing...

I actually got a compliment from a older gentlemen driving 996 4S coupe. First time ever from a 911 driver! He said he wished he had my car on a sunny day like this.

I have a speed yellow one so it really pulls the attention. Every time I drive I see people pointing at it (especially young kids) and people just want to say hi. I also see the wives riding shot gun with their husbands checking out the driver of this sports car which is always funny to me. I also have a black Mercedes and while it is more expensive than the boxster, it doesn't receive even 5% of the compliments and attention of the box.

I have to say that I love this attention. Just makes me feel like I bought the coolest car (and I did)...

Man I have to move to LA/SoCal sounds like you go to a car show every day you're driving. And great weather to boot. If I can find a job to keep me occupied I'm outta here!

I get a compliment on each drive, some questions about my seats and the never ending "how fast have you taken it?" question.
But driving around NYC where I drive at least twice a week doesn't usually turn up many Boxsters and fewer 911's. Cayennes are very frequent but that's not really a sports car

Cmon Smith....

It's got to be those wheels!!!
(I'm sooooo friggin jealous!!!)

After two weeks of 987S ownership....i'm still sneaking out to the parking lot to grab a look.---

I am quickly realizing that black is a mutha to keep clean.... upon purchase of the car, i also purchased enough tools and polish to open a small detailing buisness!
So much work....but when it shines...... WooooHooooo!

and finally... while i have recieved compliments, they mostly come from my peers (the middle age crisis males) --- couldn't be the driver.....could it?

Rondog, I'm right there with you. Currently my detailing business isn't doing to well. I have 1-client and two cars......may I ad, the client doesn't pay me anything and I'm my only client........not looking too good so far.

I think it's safe to say it's not the driver
