Congrats, soon we'll have enough white 987 owners to challenge the Klingons for inter-stellar domination.

Whoo - hoo, H&R springs on the way, and this baby is getting lowered Monday, maybe sooner. Nothing like taking a nice car that has 171 miles on it, slapping some new wheels, tires and springs on it!

Are you sure that replacing the springs on a PASM suspension car (particularly one that's leased) is a good idea? PASM cars are already lowered 10 mm relative to other 987s and the active damping system is programmed to work with OEM equipment. PASM failure and software glitches are not unheard of and at least one PASM equipped forum member has had a shock absorber replaced.
I have PASM on my car, so am familiar with the feel of sport setting. It's pretty finely tuned, and perhaps not something to mess around with. Not to mention that the Box is susceptible to bottoming-out in stock form, let alone lowered.

Looks Great! Be sure to post more pics after it's lowered.
I really like the convertible top on the 987 much better that the one on the 986. The profile looks much, much better - like it has an extra rib to give it a more vertical rear window. Does anyone know if the 987 top could be retro-fitted to the 986?

Grizzly, I remember someone posting here that this can NOT be done becuase the 987 top does have an extra rib in the top, as you noted. FYI, I have as much, if not a little bit more, head-room in the Boxster than I do in my Ford Explorer.
