Hello and wow!

Just wanted to say hello to the old gang. It's been a while since I visited and it is nice to see the forum doing so well after I started it years ago. Hope everyone is enjoying their finely tuned cars.

Can't wait for spring! Top down season

JT

JT, you may not remember me, but I started on this forum just as you were selling it and I've been a very active member. My beat up old boxster is running like a top now and I've replaced most everything on it it seems.

This forum is the only reason I kept my car. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

All you newbies.

Don't think anyone but me is still around from when Jorge started Boxsterforum in May 2002. Then he sold his Boxster.

Funny, but he does not look a day older....

Incredible. Glad everyone is enjoying their cars and the site. Nice to see that the site has grown to what it is. Keep enjoying it. Looking forward to posting pictures of my car sometime soon.

BTW, after the govt took their share of the 1.3billion i was left with just a pocket full of change. Funny thing is they still want more
