withers Posted 5May, 2013 Author Report Share Posted 5May, 2013 Great news Amanda. There are so many things for you to look forward to. Driving in the Summer with the top down. SMTs PFA car park meets Driving with the top up SMTs Needing to pinch yourself because you ask "Is this really mine?" SMTs Canberra SMT 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. And cleaning it! I've been home by myself today - in between numerous household duties, a bike ride etc I've been reading up on car cleaning tips! did you get the one with the red interior? Terracotta - yes I did had a PPI done with Porsche Parramatta and it came up hunky dory! Thanks Uncle and Doish and Michel and SteveF and MB911 and 5 sleeps I'm starting to feel a bit excited I must say! Today i was filling up my 20 cd case with driving music! Ha how keen is that????? I haven't had a car for erm 2 and a bit months - I was starting to feel a bit stir crazy. It's amazing how much having your own car appeases us petrol heads I feel like something is missing without one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

9fan Posted 5May, 2013 Report Share Posted 5May, 2013 Are you giving the Boxster a name ? Maybe FOXY - after Arctic Fox (Foxy Lady) - there's a number plate for you as well, maybe. Cheers,Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
withers Posted 6May, 2013 Author Report Share Posted 6May, 2013 usually my car names are rather boring - the GTI was simply called 'golfee' and everyone called that car golfee too, even my colleages. The SLK never got one because I wasn't that attached to it... for the first couple months when it was going back to the shop, there was usually a F in front of SLK I'm a classy babe, honest!!! Maybe terry the terracotta interior porsche or I do like foxy! I'll have to see what speaks to me on the way home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harvs11 Posted 6May, 2013 Report Share Posted 6May, 2013 I actually do like the colour combo. It's kind of similar to this one owner from new Boxster that's inhabiting the no.1 space in my garage at the mo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
