Adam, first the B&M and now the clay. What the heck is going on??? :p

It most certainly is not a placebo affect. Zaino (along with most sealants) will cover a lot of the contaminants and make...

Donv,

There are plenty to choose from and each has advantages/disadvantages. Some last longer, some are cheaper, etc. I think if you stick to the brands you mentioned you'll be ok.

Yeah, this discussion comes up every now and again. Same with Base vs S. Aren't we about due for one of those? :p

The Mother's detailing spray is good stuff and highly regarded on autopia. I use the same stuff. Smells like cinnamon!

If you're gonna waste all of that time putting on Zaino, then clay the whole car. Don't skimp!

Post pics when you're done.

I also got my PC from Lowes. Don't use the pad that comes with it though. It's a POS.

C'mon, having a manual in a sports car has nothing with being macho. But trying to justify an automatic against a manual is pretty amusing.

First of all, Schumacher's F1 tranny is a manual...

That trim is supposed to be silver. Boxster S' come with silver trim and regular Boxsters have black trim if I remember correctly. Like I said, mine is painted silver. If yours is white, then...

Why mess with vinegar and its stink? Just wash your car with Dawn and it'll strip the wax right off. This is what Sal of Zaino fame recommends.

Clay, then polish, then protect. NXT is a...

S2K is a nice car...for me to poop on!

Yeah, they really corrected the torque issue. Instead of having none, it now has next to none. LOL!

I wouldn't buy that torque-less car for $5.

I don't know about any white seal. The trim around my windshield is painted silver. Just hit it with some polish and follow up with wax. Should come out clean.

If you marked the cables then I think we can eliminate that issue.

I also think the side ball goes onto the plastic piece without the OEM's extra "adapter". But I've only done one install (my...

Make sure the latch for the convertible top is "locked". If it is left in the "open" position, the windows will stop 3/4 of the way up.

There's one of two answers here. One is you f'd up the installation. The 2nd is you're the 5% that hate the B&M. I'm going to assume the former and not the latter.

Some things to check:

I looked locally before getting mine from Brandywine. The list price is ridiculous...something like $800 apiece. I don't think any dealer really stocks them. They come from a main wharehouse...

I don't get the Nakamichi love. Most all CD players now have good A/D converters and great s/n ratio. You'd be hard pressed to hear the difference, especially in a convertible. I wouldn't waste my...

I don't get the bubble top at all. Now they can't even put a sunroof in it.

They should've made it a notchback. It's too 911/Bug/TT/Crossfire looking. A notchback would've made it look a...

You are completely missing the point. It's not just the end result. Go compare a S2K, 987 & E36 M3. All have 240 hp. So do they all drive the same? Not even close. A Cayman/Boxster with a 911 motor...

Here's my problem with the 911 and Porsche in general. I don't like the 911. A car with its engine hanging out the back is not my cup of tea. I don't care about its heritage. BFD. Now, what I do like...

The car could've been designed much better. However, I'd take the performance and feel of a mid-engined car over a 911 any day. I can't see how people compare the two cars. They are fundamentally...
