Just remember in this case the volume device is not under your right foot. Turn the radio knob on the Left side to the right. Good luck.by BLKBOXS - Main Forum

European Deliver Leipzig - Boxster 25 Years - March 8 2022 - 10 months ago
Please refer to the following summary of my ED! What a great Day! It Began – Leaving the hotel on delivery day. Chris and I left the hotel at 8 AM to the Leipzig Experience center. We were greeted and shown to the coffee shop on the 2nd floor by Shara and given a pager. The coffee shop was well equipped with all types of snacks and beverages. In the middle of the shop was a 1973 Carrera Rby BLKBOXS - Main Forum

Re: Heck, ... - 1 year ago
QuotePedro (Odessa, FL) ... I'll let you steal "the original PedrosGarage 1998" Boxster for $99,999.99 (or best offer). Now, that's a bargain! Happy Bidding Pedro Hi Pedro, For that price, that would only include the sweat equity you put in to it. What is the total price including the hardware?by BLKBOXS - Main Forum
Re: I've been suprised before - 1 year ago
I was with Guenter at that event on Saturday and the Sales guy also stated that they can't get an allocation for a base Boxster. A customer has put a deposit down since Sept 2020. No or little Supply vs current Demand = sky high prices. Note: Dealers in Canada can't ask more then MRSP. Everything in the Dealership's showroom were used Porsches...all but one was sold...2020 Spyder...Press car 7Kby BLKBOXS - Main Forum

Re: Ball Joint Rod Broke--4 years Later - 1 year ago
The passenger side ball broke. When I ordered the replacement part 4 years ago they came in as a pair. I used one and put the other one away for safe keeping. I don't have a clue were that is though? Ordered another pair. I am getting good at this repair...as long as i can remember what I did. Thank goodness I can refer back to Pedros Board! MEby BLKBOXS - Main Forum

Re: Baby, 718 Spyder for China - 1 year ago
Kind of reminds me of when Ford put a 4 cylinder in their Mustang in1974. I was not impressed...so I kept my 1973 Mach 1 351 Cleveland 4 Barrel 4 speed for a while. I am sure the China Spyder will perform well...but not like the NA 4.0 LTR.by BLKBOXS - Main Forum
Re: At the risk of a flame war..... IMS debate.... - 1 year ago
Replacing IMS when you are replacing your clutch really won't matter for MY 2005.5 and up as you need to crack open the block to remove the IMS. I guess I will drive and enjoy.by BLKBOXS - Main Forum
Re: Tires - 1 year ago
As you stated …"Michelin Pilot Sports 4S are the "best" " It is the only thing between your car and the road, why not get the best? I have a 2006 Boxster S and have never deviated from the Michelins. I ride on Michelins on my Lexus because it is a family car. My Honda that I drive back and forth to work gets whatever is on sale at the time. I feel the difference as I did have Michelins onby BLKBOXS - Main Forum
