took

Just taking the opportunity to vent. It seems like this has been the coldest (and now it's wet) first half of April in many years here in northern Illinois. Took my 911 TTS out of storage March 28, took delivery of my 718 BGTS April 5, and have had woefully little opportunity to enjoy them...

Did anyone go this morning? If not, here are some shots I took in the cold. Brr. https://www.flickr.com/photos/ant_man2000/albums/72157691312637201

So I thought I do a little thread about the Softronic installation and impression. This will go over a few days and I will update accordingly. I took the opportunity to buy the software on sale over the holidays. Our car is a base Boxster, only "mod" are K&N air filters. We live in Utah, so we...

90 in a 65. I'll lawyer up and let him decide the best defense, but I want to give him some ideas. How are these? "It was only the third time I'd driven a car with this kind of power and it just took off on me." "I'm an old fart with a perfect driving record for over a...

Hello, folks So, I Purchased Brand new 2017 Boxster S model this May. Took it to the track at 2500 mile, 3-4 laps on track and I noticed that it only make 5 psi of boost at the max. Oil temp reading was 235-240 F, Outside temp was 85F. Wasn't able to finish the entire trackday due to the...

I took my Cayman to the dealer to have a spare key programmed as well as the safety inspection, and asked for No wash please. When I returned they had just washed it to my internal dismay (its wrapped in Suntek Ultimate), at first glance it looked undamaged. When I got to my garage I took...

Bought a 2012 Cayman R a month ago(love it). Has 30000km on it with only few DE days on it. Is PDK and just did IDP plenum and throttle body and Cargraphic sport headers. Only had 911's before and don't know Cayman's. Took out for drive 2 weeks ago and after a minute temp gauge spiked to...

Happy independence day for those of us in the states. It's been awhile since I took any pictures of the BS. So here are some. Enjoy

I got sick of being blinded by the aluminum trim piece in the center. I had the dealer order the $317 leather replacement one. Took all of 2 minutes to swap out. The trim piece pops out super easy. https://youtu.be/Mh3cf4H7eNs

Back in February I noticed that my windshield gasket (for lack of a better term) had started to degrade, it was like it was melting. As it was still under warranty, I took it to the dealer. They took pictures, cleaned it up, and said to let them know if it got worse. It wasn't bad for a long...

Finally took some photos of my newly acquired 2013 BS

I took my Spyder up there with my brother and it was a life changing experience. I think this was the only time I experienced the car on the road in a manner where I was convinced the manual transmission was the better option than a PDK in this car. I really don't like manuals and I have...

Although I received these a little while back I finally got around to installing my lightweight bucket seat (LWB) bolster protectors from Exclusive Option. I'm not going to try and repeat the install instructions here because Exclusive Option sends you printed directions along with a DVD that...

A few shots I took of my GT4 I AM IN LOVE!

Finally got around to correcting the GT4 center console to be like the one they showed on the press car back at unveiling and then took away by production time. Enjoy! The install article can now be found here...

So, the car was due for the yearly service and my wife wanted for the longest time red calipers. Ok then, get parts and start working! It is her daily and since last year she put approx. 7,500 miles on her. I took it really easy and with lunch and other breaks it took a day, no problem. Let's...

...that had gone dormant when I got rid of my '04 Boxster Anniversary Edition in 2008. It was still available so I took it back.

So, I purchased my 09 Cayman in February 2015. The car had averaged 4,000 miles a year and was in great shape with records. Inspection showed no issues so I passed on an extended warranty of questionable exclusions. However, after about 6 months of daily driving it started to jump abruptly...

I went on a Panama Canal cruise in 2013 and took an incredible shore excursion where we were in a boat and the guide put the boat on a muddy shore and went out in ankle deep mud, attracted several crocs and fed them from less that a foot! I was on the rail of the tour boat, about eight feet...
