I can relate. Just replaced my canvas (with glass) last month! Local shop (Simply German) and they did a great job. Troy did the replacement and he did a great job.by chris & 987 - Main Forum
Great pictures and congrats. Enjoy and post up some more pictures when u get a chance.by chris & 987 - Main Forum
Quotemikefocke, '01S Sanford, NC and was horribly unimpressed. The mass media article had a "Porsche killer" tone but the lines of the exterior from the photos at least had no appeal. And the interior looked worse. To each his own.... http://money.cnn.com/gallery/autos/2013/08/15/chevrolet-corvette-stingray/index.html Wow! That black and yellow makes it look like a Viper, Gimmickyby chris & 987 - Main Forum
Interesting thread. The Corvette vs Porsche rivalry is renewed. I think that is great. Im sure the pros and cons of each will be sliced and diced by consumer, customers, car mags, and auto affficianados world wide. But as a relatively new porsche owner (2 years) I choose porsche over Vette. They main reasonings at the top of my list are car lineage and heritage. I wanted to be part of an ownershby chris & 987 - Main Forum

I need to replace my covert top for my 07 boxster, black with glass. Not as easy as it sounds. I cant find a east coast sales spot that is reasonable. Vertex quoted me 970$ but two weeks shipping: IMHO thats crazy to wait 2 weeks for a part that should be on the east coast. Convertible tops.com (west coast) offers same top for 700$ and 2-3 day shipping Will probably have it shipped to a local shby chris & 987 - Main Forum
didnt listen to any parts except for throttle samples...by chris & 987 - Main Forum
great advise here. thanks. If you had one installed recently would like to hear comments on quality of the canvas top. I have heard it is better than originalby chris & 987 - Main Forum
i am pursing that approach with POrsche NA as we speak. Also checking for local parts and/or replacement the top has a little normal wear and tear and honestly if i could get the glass replaced w/o an insurance claim for a few 100 I would do it. that being said, i am also looking at FS items to replace the top. Thanksby chris & 987 - Main Forum
call this shop near atlanta, they may have a used one onsite and could ship overnight. 100% BS noone can get that part for you for over a month. Strictly german, near braselton or winder ga, ask for bobbie good luckby chris & 987 - Main Forum
Accident today for me and my o7 base boxster. Dammit man! rear window burst when lowering top. whats the best, cheapest replacement options? will state farm cover this under road hazard coverage? thx for any advice!by chris & 987 - Main Forum
Love it. The lisc plate preamble "LB" stands for town of Ludwigsburg, a suburb north of Stuttgart. Leaving the left blinker on wasnt a mistake it is the way you let people know to "please" get the hell outta my way when traveling in the far left lane. This video makes one daydream of trading in the current boxster for the new one. Porsche should consider using this, or parts of it for commercialby chris & 987 - Main Forum

you can get drive up hard resin/plastic ramps for about 30-$ at pep boys or any auto parts place.by chris & 987 - Main Forum
when driving 2 handed i always go with 4 and 8 position. one hand? 8 position. my reasoning for 4 and 8? siting in the drivers seat if i am suddenly thrust forward, because of a rear ender, and accident, an abrupt stop, my hands would be undermy chest and closer to re-acquire handling of the wheel versus the 10 and 2 method.in the 10 and 2 method, with you hands at the top of the wheel, with an aby chris & 987 - Main Forum
Petee C, Your instincts are correct. That OEM HU and speakers are junk. Replace them with a modern HU and component or matched up speakers. It may run you 1500$ -2000 but you already know its worth it. I did this approx 6 months ago and have never regretted it. On another note.. I kept my HU kinda low key so that it did not attract some idiot who would be willing to cut the top to get to the heaby chris & 987 - Main Forum
