6 Speed,

After 23 months and 41,550 miles, i have traded in my 2008 Cayman S for a shiny new 2011 Boxster Spyder

Picked it up last night with 215 miles on the clock --- put another 55 on it myself and then tucked it into the garage as the Philly area is getting awful rain today. More pics and impressions to come...but for now, here are few pics!!!


In the showroom last night




First drive - what a GREAT car. Noticably quicker than my CS. Amazing shifter feel and steering feel. Heated seats work amazing. And the glow off the screen onto the painted white center console is just sick.




Tucked away late last night




I feel very blessed to have bought this car and am looking forward to many fun drives in it. There really is no substitute

 

John - Looking forward to you putting on another 75K miles on this car in 6 months. ;-)

CONGRATS BUDDY!!!! GREAT DECISION AND BEAUTIFUL CAR......

 

great move, congrats!!

 

Whoa whoa whoa is the big news man your Cayman S was insane but this little bad boy looks awesome congrats. Any driving impressions right away compared to your old 987CS ?

 

I knew you were the playboy type with that nice hips post but this is insane!!!!

Awsome looking car though !! Congrats !...hey ..what about the CEC you had ?

 

Thanks man. Loved my Cayman S, a little sad to see her go, but man this is night and day. The Spyder is like no other car i have ever driven. Its steering and shifting are like magic. The heated sport seats are even better 3 years newer than my old ones, and the experience of driving this thing "al fresco" is unreal. I think once i get comfy driving it hard i would be able to SMOKE myself driving in my Cayman if we were ripping around the track or a back road.



Dude, you are a funny guy. Always get a kick out of your humor. Thanks for the kind words - all the parts went with the car (And I gave them the stock stuff too) - arent i a nice guy?

 

Well congrats and white is my favorite color in that car ! Now time to mod hmmmm

 

Very Nice... Congrats on the new Spyder!

 

you will have to do another Hips comparison with your new ride !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am jealous

 

Nice move. I want - I want... but unfortunately my home has no garage... so no Spyder for me. I noticed you don't have the sport buckets..., how much of the "al fresco" experience do you feel is from driving with open top?

 

Congrats!

 

Omg! I loved your CS, but the Spyder is a new level of awesome. Congrats!

 

Amazing Spyder!! I drove one and was really impressed with the handling and speed - not to mention how hot it looks! I'll bet that car gets a lot of attention. Enjoy!

 

What was your reasoning in changing From the coolest looking cayman to a Boxster ?

Truthfully - was it more Women ? or what? NJ isnt exactly the sunshine state is it

 

Hips? I was thinking more of a "two tops off" type of thing? KIDDING! KIDDING!



Thanks



Thanks. Yea, a garage is a must. Top Open = only way to roll in the Spyder


Thanks!...glad you liked the old ride - i did too!


Thanks man. Did you post up pics/specs on yours???


yea, def has very exotic looks. But the drive and the feel of this car is what sold me.


The coolest? You sure you dont mean the second coolest? ......and NJ def isnt the sunshine state --- thats why i live in PA!!!
