Yellow is a very fine colour , although if you're a serious type or badass (real or with trainer wheels) its gotta be black or nothing, lol

Agree,  not a lot of classic Porsches selling in the past year or so and IMO that's because they're overpriced in this country and the demographic is scared off by service costs - real or imagined. And there is a lot of choice when it comes to sporty cars these days. I mean all those slk's and mx5s  :rolleyes:

There are a lot of cars on this thread so not sure if this one has been on already but here goes.

I presume that it was a US car originally with those chrome light surrounds and obvious LHD wipers? PFA has taught me a lot about P cars!

Yep we've mentioned that one.  I like it its pretty. Its an import... and those light surrounds are a bit ugly.  Nice color tho.

Well this thread can be wrapped up now. I've bought a Porsche!

A 2005 Boxster 987 in Arctic Silver. I'll pick it up next week. Very pleased with my purchase and feel I've chosen the right P for me.

Photos next week :)

A huge huge thank you for all the advice I've been given. I really hope my threads have helped other newcomers to the marque and everyone has had fun watching and participating in my crazy journey too.

I am very excited for you Amanda, hopefully it will have been worth it! I am however feeling a little sad that this very consuming chapter has come to an end.

Needing to pinch yourself because you ask "Is this really mine?"

The wonderful sound of that flat 6 engine

That wonderful sound of the Fister boys whilst on a SMT

Oh and did I mention SMTs???

And lets not forget that crazy grin you will have every time you sit in it.

Journey has just begun.

Great news Amanda, good on you :D

 

I look forward to seeing your photos. Boxsters are nice cars.

 

I just love the pride of ownership of the Porsche, they are just excellent cars. I am sure you will have a ball, I love my S2, best car I've ever owned.

 

How many sleeps?? :rolleyes:
