Let's take a moment and share with everyone else a funny story that has to do with their Boxster. Could be anything,comments,looks or faces people make at you. I will start.

Earlier today I was on my way home and pasted by this school's playground area. As I pull up next to the STOP sign in front of the playground about 10 kids stop and look at me. You would have thought I was Spongebob the way they were looking at me. I stopped and looked to the opposite side of the playground to see if the kids were looking at something across the street,nope nothing there. So I look back at the kids and wave as to say "hello" and about five of the kids wave back and one yells, "Nice car mister!".

Here's a quick one... my brother taught -rather trained my nephew to ask me "How come you didin't get a 911?" everytime I pull up in my Boxster. Real cute coming from a 5 year old.

Another one: While walking to my car after work there were a couple of high school kids checking out my car. As I was walking up to it, one of them commented on how they liked it and said something to the effect of "What do these run, 'bout a hundred grand or something?" He was a little off. I couldn't help but laugh.

My 50 year old friend's dad, who must be in his 70's, got up after dinner one night, went out to the boxster, came in and said, "Am I going blind, or does your Porsche really redline at 6500 rpm?" Evidently, he thought that was really, really high. He's an old school American car guy for sure.

Then, just last night, someone at a dinner party said, "Is it really true your oil changes cost something like $150?" After I explained that it's really about the same amount as he pays on his SUV, but I do them every third time he does his at $40 a pop, I told him about wearing out $200+ tires in 7500 miles. Everyone in the room freaked.

I had a couple high school kids ringing my doorbell this summer and figured they were probably selling magazines or something so I wasn't planning on going to the door, but randomly did. They asked if they could take pictures of each other by my Boxster. I thought that was funny, nice of them to ask.

LOL, that reminds me of going to local car shows here down in the sticks. When I have both decklids raised they walk around the car a few times wondering where the enigine is. I tell them it is gerble powered.
