New owner: 2003 Box S

Alright. After working with my indy mechanic/dealer for 3 wks, I've got a new car coming tomorrow. We checked 996s high and low but he didn't like any of the ones that fit my price range. So I ended up with a 2003 Boxster S. Should be fun having the vert since we go to the beach almost every weekend in the summer. And in a couple of years when we have kids, I'll just "upgrade" to the 911. Dave is heading up to ATL to pick up the car for me tonight (assuming it passes his final inspection) and I'll have it tomorrow. Perfect color (not silver) and my favorite rims. Looks like a great car!

My new BoxsterS.

Lol, yeah I always said that silver is for people that can't decide what color they want. Truthfully I love white the best, but the grey is a strong second.

I just picked it up. What a blast! Doesn't make me miss my 97 Cobra I sold at all. But it does need to be louder. I had off road pipes and a catback on the Cobra, so I'm used to ridiculously loud. The only problem with it is that it needs a good detail and the hood has some medium size rock chips in it.

Thanks everybody. I have to say that at the moment, I'm glad I got it instead of the 911. I can't wait to put the top down every time I drive it. I have gotten more complements that I ever did on my Cobra, and I used to get a lot on it.
