Hey guys,
I was hoping someone could help me out with a few questions I have concerning a 2000 Boxster S I am considering purcahsing tommorrow:
-I am going to use the car year round in St Louis, how do the boxster S's handle in rain, snow, etc. I realize that MY '01 or later have PSM, but I am getting a really good deal on this '00. What do you think? Will I need to buy snow tires?
-Due to the mid-engine design, I plan on using it in DE events, etc... If you aren't careful will one of these switch ends on you in a hurry?
-This model does not have heated seats, which I wanted? Is it worth paying a lot more for one with? I've never had a convertible with heated seats? Does it make an enourmous difference?
-Help on the following option codes:
98yu664117
986-320L741AA

I really appreciate the help and hope to soon be a regular visitor in the boxster area!
