20 years and my 986 never ceases to maze meamaze me
Bright sunny day in Ontario. Temperatures in the mid teens. That's good enough for me to get my 01 Boxster out of winter storage.
As always, it starts first time without a complaint. Very little smoke and soon settles down to a nice burble. After 20 years in never ceases to amaze me that the car starts and runs perfectly after winter storage. Every year its like getting a special spring time present.
Naturally I put the top down, donned my Pedros Board hat and took her out for a spin. Ran flawlessly up and down through the gears. As always I got a wave from somebody. 20 years old and it runs like a top.
On the other hand i should have remembered that I had 50lbs air in the tires!
