Thanks for the Bridgestone tire rec! Roads in Southern California are great. Almost as nice as the Bay Area.

I was in contact with Suncoast on the new steering wheel but was able to find a totalled RS60 on ebay and grabbed that wheel. Very knowledgeable.

Looking forward to driving on HWY 74 as well as Mulholland North of LA.

 

I still have a lot of RS60 goodies including the very limited edition 1:43 model set from Porsche (includes the original 1960 Sebring Spyder), Porsche original RS60 brochure which well outlines all the additions the RS60 received, and the original Porsche poster for dealer showrooms for which it acclaims the RS60 as the king. That's framed but I never got around to hanging it. King because it's the first Boxster to topple 300 hp I guess. Probably more stuff if I go look!

 

I had one of those for a little while. Telepathic steering, great brakes, great sounding engine, beautiful shifter. I just needed more room. Other than that, the car was awesome.
I loved how the gauges didn't have a cover, very old school, and the red interior. Loved the seats too.

 

Yep. I wish I still had mine. Steering was sublime. I replaced mine with a 2011 Spyder and actually found I enjoyed the RS60 more.

 

Congrats and welcome to the forum! The Boxster is a superb platform for fun, good choice.
