Wink New 987S This Weekend !

Hello Porsche Fans,

After many years of dreaming, I am now a Boxster owner, and get my lovely newish 1.5 years old GT Silver 987S this weekend,

Please have a look at the pictures...

Pictures of *Big sister Caroline standing on drivers seat. *My mum and Dad, (Nancy and Peter looking very happy) *And a picture of me and Big sister Caroline.

Cheers for looking and hope we can discuss all thing Porsche very soon.

Michael



P.S. Does anyone know how I can "easily" fit an IPOD to the Boxster? If not no worries.

Nice looking car Michael! Congrats! (GT silver is verrryyy nice...)

Happily, your "Big sister" is not "Big", so the driver's seat is still happy!

Hi AudiologisTT

A bit personal! I am 35 years.

Thanks for the info on the Ipod, integrated into the PCM system, that looks just what I want. :-) Unfortunatley I am based in the United Kingdom, and the company selling and installing the product is based in the USA. :-(

Cheers

Michael

you should be able to order it once it's released and have it shipped overseas.. installation for those things is pretty straightforward as a DIY (or you can take to your dealer). Sorry if the age comment seemed inappropriate; it was not my intention. You looked about as old as my college-age son (it's the picture) and sometimes young guys don't fully appreciate/respect their cars (ie, drive like idiots). Obviously, you're not, my mistake... The 987 is a great car with an amazing potential. Take time to get to know it and the car will reward you. If you can find a DE or CarControlClinic, go for it. You may also want to look into joining a local P-car club; lots of fun events!
Enjoy it!!!
