Nope - one benefit of a high mileage car

Yup. I think I'm starting to suffer from Boxster Affective Disorder.

Every time I go into the garage, I can feel the CURVEN8R's sad headlights peer up at me from under the cover with that "Can we go out for a drive pleeeeeeese!" look.

Maybe a picture or two of Boxsters out and about would help.

Anyone, ....anyone, ....anyone

OK, I'll start. Boxster on the Blue Ridge Parkway this June. .....only 183 days until BRBS.

Nice photo, Guenter!

...just tucked my "CajitaBlanca" away with a big hug... planning my next road trip to the SW in March. It's something to look forward to... and gets me through these brutal Chicago winters

70+ yesterday but a storm front came through last night and a cold front is coming through in about 4 hours that will drop the temperatures to the 20s. So since the toy is sitting out there right now with its top down, time to go for a last run and then wash it before putting it away for a while.

My only question is should I bother with the Noah cover or will I get a few stretches of good weather again that will permit runs..no way of knowing. Only reason I'd cover it is dust but if I'll be taking it out in a few days or even weeks why bother.

its outside in the 40 mph wind gusts and sheets of rain and my only thought was ....better you than me.....its a car...i dont hug or ogle it

yep - same BAD symptoms here Guenter. Just glad you didn't post a sad picture of your car undercovers...

Mine got the same treatment 2 weekends ago just hope it doesn't grow again this winter or I'll be driving a pepper or Piggymara to BRBS


BTW - Thanks Pedro and Stefan for setting up the new old joint

Hey Burg. You're alive!!!. Haven't seen you on the new Board. Not sure how we could survive without your vast knowledge base about blinker fluid. Not too much fun in only being able to drive your Boxster in only a straight line.

Were you refering to this picture:

indeed I is

Didn't know the board was up until recently so I just made it over to register yesterday. Glad to be here - nice to see lots of familiar friends.

I finally decided to go w/ Lifetime blinker fluid so I never have any concerns again about running out. However, it might be too late based on your car cover, but in the spring, first thing you should do is put the correct seasonal air in your tires. BRBS will come much more quickly if you skip spring and go straight to the summer air

BTW, I think I need to get a new muffler TY to finish off my exhaust mods

I take it that the PNR comes in handy when driving the twisties with the boss.

What kind of golf cart is that hanging on the wall? Looks like it will fit in the front trunk.

It almost fits into the glove box.

It's a Sun Mountain Micro Cart. Front trunk would hold 2 or 3. Aside from the fact that it folds up really small, it also has a nice umbrella holder so you can keep you and your equipment dry between shots without having to hold the umbrella. I really like that feature for our climate.

They just put the first salt of the season down here in CT, so that pretty much means charger in, cover on time for me.

I've got some new spacers, but otherwise am out of hack ideas for the winter.

So far, we've been lucky here. Just mainly a dusting of s**w. That's not the case in London, just 60 miles west of here. They've had 4.5 feet of s**w since yesterday morning.
