new to me boxster
Hello, I'm Bosco in San Jose Ca.
Thanks to the forum I have:

researched and purchased a 98 boxster.
IMS, clutch and shaft seal done. As well as a new top with glass. Black interior base.
sorted out the child seat bar and electronics.
sorted out the Becker radio upgrade to use bluetooth and hook up an Ipod.
worked out a maintenance schedule.
.. and now looking for a hardtop.

here is my new ride, a '98. Today I took off the broken Boxster badge.

Thanks to VW and me owning a TDI and the diesel scandal I got me a Porsche!
thx986forum.

You can find brand new Boxster badges on eBay.

Leave the badge off. Looks nice and clean without. Nice upgrades on the car. All expensive to do. Welcome.

Welcome.

Badges? We don't need no stinking badges.
