Default Swap Boxsters???????????

I have a 1998 boxster (I am the original owner) with 12k miles and a 5-speed transmission. My Wife wants a Tiptronic. I assume that a conversion is not cost effective, so if any one wishes that they had a 5-speed instead of a "tip", let me know.
Mine is ocean blue, Graphite interior, garage kept and mint.
I know this is a long shot.

Your wife OWNS YOU...I'm just kidding, but do you really want to give up the 5-speed for a tip? Is it because she drives it more then you? IMO, going from a 5-speed to a tip is like wasting a good sports car, kinda like buying an auto GT mustang, but again that's just my opinion. Good luck with your quest.

Going with the pack
is quite monotonous.

Average Minds talk about events.

Great Minds talk about what is to become.
Sorry, I was bored, found it amusing to myself...

Jeff, hope you find what you are looking for...

Hey....
I am the main, if not only driver of the boxster...I would like my wife to have some fun too, and she's not good with a clutch (and we live in the steep hills).
FYI...My other Car is a 96 Carrera Cab (SIS SPEED, 18" wheels, RSR mufler,etc.), so it's fine with me if the boxster turns into a "tip".
My wife drives a CLK500 and a CLK320, so she does know what good is...

Jeff, it was just a joke, hence the "just kidding". I guess I hit a really touchy side of you. No need to justify what else you own because that was irrelevant. It was just another when a guy gets married the wife has all the control kind of jokes.
