+1 on Jox, hilarious. And I also have to agree on the happines, funny how we can still be happy about a "Boxster" considering the rest of the stable. Enjoy it in good health, and go tear up the track ...

I am amazed how much interest this thread in the Boxster forum has generated. Good on Porsche for developing this car.

Thanks to all for the kind comments and positive words!

Dave I know you have been a Boxster fan for a long time, and I always enjoy your posts. In equally talented hands do you think a (PDK/PCCB/LiON/LW Wheels) Spyder would generate better track times than a 07/08 GT3 on a more technical track? Comments/thoughts?

Back at ya! Your spec is awesome! Am looking forward to seeing pics ASAP!

It is all true! I am as excited to drive/track his Spyder as I am/was with the RS. And that is a lot of excitement...lol Thanks for the kind words!

I drove a Cayman with tiptronic about 5 years ago. While the engine was underwhelming (much better now I am sure), the chassis dynamics goodness was immediately apparent. As it was some time ago I will not be your best source for an objective comparison, sorry!

When will Stoppie post more pics? We are dying of picture thirst Mang!

So the guys slamming 3.8's into Caymans felt the same way you do it seems. No biggie just love the looks of the Caymans but know I'd never drive it if I had one.

Great looking spyder btw

MORE PICS??!! FIIIINNEE! LOL (walks away on a mission)


Ps. I'm going record to say this: when I went to gas the car up- all of about 1/4 mile of it.....was WICKED! The car makes some crazy sounds when it changes gears....and drives like its on rails (thanks to the neg. camber dialed in Per Savvy!)


Honestly- this ain't your daddy's Boxster, thats for sure. All Boxsters PALE in comparison to this hot dish! (sh*t, a LOT of cars pale in comparison!)
