Wow!
You lost out on the car I walked away from (an incidental find while boxster shopping), and bought the car I was looking for when I bought mine (I settled for my second choice of year and color, which grew on me). That is a beautiful Box.

Oh wow! That is pretty funny! At first I wasn't sold on the 911 because it was a cab but after driving it for a weekend I realized my opinion of convertibles has changed with age.

Thanks for the compliments all! Unfortunately I can't drive the Box all weekend (its absolutely gorgeous out too) since I have my 3yr old daughter while the wife is away for the weekend.

Car seat issue? You can get a airbag shutoff for a car seat.

Yeah, I found the Latch system on Pelican. I just have to order one and have the airbag shutoff.
