Finally made the plunge!
So, after driving my dad's 996 for 3 months while he was recovering from back surgery (keeping it exercised for him), I had to give it back. I could not stand the thought of going back to the Mini Cooper S, so I made the plunge and bought a '98 Boxster. It has 82k miles and looks like it has lived in-doors its whole life. There are plenty of gremlins lurking, but I do have the mini to fall back on. I did my first PCA drive yesterday and had a ball, even if I froze my keister off with the top down. The PCA guys haul ass! Geez! A much different experience than the Mini club. Anyway, enough bout me, heres the car:


Dad's Arctic Silver next to my Boxster (and dad).

I know what you mean. Wife drives the Mini S and I really notice the difference. Congratulations and enjoy.
