What do you think of a Two-Tone Paint Job?

Hi,
I just wanted to post some pictures, of my Boxster's first time in the snow while I've owned it. I was doing a project in the garage so it got parked outside, and it snowed. Who new it would snow in October? So much for the car wash I got yesterday. Also, these are some pic's of my hardtop mounted RTS.
Enjoy!

Hay, I plan on driving in the snow.
This Boxster is no garage queen.

I don't mind the confession that you left your Porsche out in the snow. Everyone makes mistakes now and then. We just have to learn from our mistakes and get past them.

However, you should definitely post pictures of it clean and dry and toasty inside your heated garage immediately.

Ummm, What's with that roof rack? Maybe it's time to think about a second car to do all your heavy hauling.

I've got it in the garage now, and I just got it rewashed, and cleaned the interior. My garage isn't currently heated but I am working on changing that. I had it outside because I was painting my roof box for the roof rack in the garage, because it was to windy to paint outside. And it just so happened to snow in October.

I am not really interested in another car because of the cost plus insurance. The Boxster has two trunks with already makes it the most practical convertable avaliable, and the roof rack is an added bonus for skiis, bikes, and surfboards. I'll be the only one at the ski resort in a sports car which works for me, and today I took deliver of my new snow tires.
