Hey All ,

ive posted a few times but havnt introduces myself I believe.

Im living in Ireland and have been plannning on buying a Porsche for a long time . My background is all Ford as good old Henry’s family were born a few miles from me and emigrated to the us afterwards. His ancestors came back to Cork and built the only Henry Ford and sons plant in the world as the board wouldn’t sanction it . I drove various Fords INC the high performance Cosworth models with the Sierra being my longest ownership at 21 years .

moved onto convertibles then with the intention of owning the trilogy over a few years , Honda S2000 first and then onto a BMW Z4 but ending with the sweetest , the Porsche 981s .

its took me a year and a half to find my ultimate car , details below

2012 Boxster 981 S
agate grey
pebble and agate extended leather
14 way chairs with mem
elec column
sports design wheel
paddles
PSE
PCM
sports chrono
sat nav
Bose
PASM
20” Carreras
bi zenons
PDLS
frt / rear parking sensors

I just added cruise and a two year warranty to top it off , extremely happy with my purchase even tho as I had to buy in the UK there was a huge import tax it all fades away once the PSE kicks off .....

Very nice and welcome. I'm from Dublin but live in the US now. I just picked up a similar car (2013 base) Agate grey, 6 speed. Yours is well equipped! They're a rare sight back home, post up some photos of it.
