Thanks for the info.
Well as I said its a 2007 Boxster S with an automatic. As you can see (if the picture posts) it is blue on blue. Don’t know much else about it. Extremely low mileage which I find by searching isn’t necessarily a good thing. Love it, can’t wait to take it on a long weekend drive over into the Ozarks.

Hi Martha
Great looking Boxster, how are you finding the 6 cylinder growl coming from behind your head?

I find it very strangely addictive - to the point I drive with the stereo off a lot of the time.

Hi Peter, Yes you gotta love the growl.
while I love the sound I do have one gripe, the alien eyed exhaust tips, I want round tips.
I’ve not crawled under the car yet to see if the tips can be replaced without replacing the entire exhaust system but I’m going to be watching for something to improve the looks of the exhaust.
I love the sound so I’m not ready to change out the whole exhaust system. I’ve seen exhaust tips that supposedly makes into a true dual exhaust, that would be great if its just bolt-on. I’m hoping something like this will fit my car. Like I said I’ve not looked under the car yet.
I went for a long drive yesterday, drove around a nearby lake. I’m so excited about my new to me car that I’m about to burst. I never thought I would own a car like this.

Hi Martha
Cant help you on there exhaust front as I have an older 986. Im thrilled for you, I bet you look very dashing zooming along the side of the lake.

The older Prosche enthusiast gentleman I purchased my car from left me these parting words. "Porsches don't drive themselves, but the more you drive them the more you want to drive them". He was so right.

Keep me informed of your Porsche adventures and occasional pics.

heres one of mine.

I love your yellow car. I did a search of online pricing guides to check the used car value of my new to me blue Boxster, and just for fun I also checked the value of the different colors, according to the online guides yellow and red are worth $4000 more than blue. Or maybe its my blue is worth $4000 less, LoL. Whatever…Love your yellow but I love my blue too!

Hi Martha
thanks for your kind words, The blue looks very classy and I love your wheels. One bad thing about the yellow (apart from it attracting unwanted attention) the plastic panels i.e. bumpers etc fade at a different rate to the metal panels. Its not too noticeable when its clean. Red does the same seemingly.
