I don't know any females that watch Top Gear (at least in the U.S.). If this is a chick, sounds like a keeper.

The person that did it must be illiterate...Can't spell Boxster and can't read the badging on the back of the car.
I'll go out on a limb and venture to guess that the person is jealous. Must be the ex-boyfriend of the girl you are screwing right now.

Could be meant as a slam though...
One could also interpret it as an insult to 996 owners...
As in:
He/She was referring to your car as a Boxster since you can't tell the difference from the front...
A 996 is not a "real" 911
Just a different perspective from a fellow 996 owner.
Tonger

Dude - a 996 is a 911. Just because Porsche had an internal code for the car doesn't mean it's not a 911. There was another thread about what you call your car, a 911 or a 996, and everyone seems to think that they are far superior if they refer to it as a 996 instead of a 911. I can tell you this - I didn't grow up dreaming about internal codes, I was dreaming about a 911. Now I have one. I couldn't care less about generation designations.

There are dozens of offices with views of where the car was parked on that day, I assume someone saw it from their office window. That's the only logical explanation. I can't see someone spotting the car, running into an office to print and running back out all just to post a note.
I'm fairly certain this person had good intent, not poor. This is downtown Austin, a town with a generally positive outlook.
If I was parked in a bad part of town, maybe, but there's plenty of money around here.
