Flat black wheels would look nice on your car! much better than the gloss ones.
The wait is starting to be more painful the closer I get. I have 29 days before estimated completion.

Not me, - Cayman- is getting the Spyder. Remember?
His Spyder is being built in 28 days.
I've still got my '04 BoxS. I love that car. I'm gonna keep it. Working on modding it now. Did I mention I love it?
Actually, come to think of it, the Spyder coming out kind of helps a guy see Boxsters in a new light. (no pun intended) Makes me dig my Box even more. Hell, even the guys on the GT3 forum are loving the spyder!
I love Boxsters!

Hey Phil
I just sold my '00 Boxster S. Could not justify having three cars in the garage/on the drive at present. Four if you include my wifes LR3. I too loved my Boxster, it was full of options, full leather etc, very special car. Two things I didn't like, being a 986 I had to run a BK bar for track events and second was the plastic rear window. OK so you don't have the latter, have you ever tracked it?
Also I got the Carrera so that I could ferry my young family around on the weekends and even to school on some days. Works as intended!
Plan is to get a Boxster in about three years, hopefully somebodies ex Spyder with full red leather!!
Yes I know I'll be back up to three cars but we should also be settled in a new larger home by then and justification will be easier.
I did have the privalage of driving both my Boxster and 911 back to back for a few months. I look forward to the day when I can again do that.
And you are correct, the Spyder is casting the Boxster in a very good light. Hell it's basically a GT3 roadster.

I wish shipping took the 20 days you quoted... that would be true if I were on the east coast. Since I'm in Oregon I'll be adding a few days going through the Panama Canal. Also the ship departure is dependent on where I sit on filling the ship... Hopefully I'm at the end of the list with less wait. To be honest since this is a launch of a new model and there is a bunch of them being shipped along with other models, I think the wait getting on the ship will be minimal compared to a few months ago when allocations were non-existent. Once my Spyder gets to San Diego I have to wait for Port PDI and then hitch a ride up to Oregon. From Factory Completion, I have been told 6-8 weeks. So mid to late April
