New York Boxster (a real gem)


Recommended Posts

Lived in NYC for some years so can visualise exactly how the little Boxster ends up like this - recall watching a guy on East 46th squeeze into a parking spot that was initially about 10cm longer than his yank tank. He extended his space by circa 40cm by pushing the cars immediately ahead and behind  to make room - watching the process over 5 minutes, questioned if this was the real reason American cars were required to have those ugly over-sized bumpers back in the 1970s?

wonder if it happens as much now with dash cams that can pick up motion / impact.
