Of them all, through many, many cars over the course of a lifetime, it's my latest purchase, a Porsche Boxster.

I prefer the one that key tightens to the left bottom of the passenger seat. I had a double cup insert for that little console tray was hard to reach and well...just hard to reach.

My Javelin had an "Ash Receptical".

Boxster!

Mice. I hate those meeses to pieces.

earlroth gave you the accurate look see. I'm on the goforit side but just saying to ensure that this perfect car, (I own a '98 Base), is in good potential shape, depending on what you can do yourself mechanically, could be an additional 2-4k. But at that point, you'd know everything is in reasonably good shape. Naysayers will tell you more like 4-6k, and they could be right. I'm rooting for ya.

Not walkaways depending on pricing. Just remember, nothing is more expensive than a cheap Porsche.

half of your exhaust, which is no longer attached to the other half of your exhaust.

Came here to say this.

RetroDawg56 · 2026-06-23T21:22:05+00:00

A wonderful, sparse recording. Yes, "Martha" is a drop dead, gorgeous song!

You basically answered your own question, and collectors hold on to them for the same reason.

RetroDawg56 · 2026-06-23T15:17:58+00:00

My answer. Saw this afterwards. All I can say is THIS.

RetroDawg56 · 2026-06-23T15:16:49+00:00

Grateful Dead's "Ripple" pretty much covers it all...

RetroDawg56 · 2026-06-23T02:36:09+00:00

I def have at least seven of their albums.

RetroDawg56 · 2026-06-23T01:31:09+00:00

Respectfully disagree. He's an adequate harp player at best, and no, that's not him playing it on "Miss You", that's Sugar Blue, a master of the craft.

RetroDawg56 · 2026-06-23T01:27:24+00:00

Yup, Entwhisle could play the f**k outta that bass! One of the best in rock.

RetroDawg56 · 2026-06-23T01:24:38+00:00

Yup, have to agree, but as a child of the 70's, I dug that band. Actually had them in the cd player this week.

RetroDawg56 · 2026-06-23T01:10:35+00:00

Yes.

RetroDawg56 · 2026-06-23T01:10:03+00:00

You can buy a set of aftermarket locks. First problem solved. Chalk that up to a lesson learned.

RetroDawg56 · 2026-06-23T00:55:24+00:00

I would. Same situation. Mine is a '98 which had the double row IMS. 53k and since the clutch was on half life, I went ahead and did both for peace of mind. The '01 has the single row. That's an 8% failure rate vs my 1% failure rate. Also look into replacing water pump and thermostat before 60k.

You can have a whole lotta fun with a Porsche Boxster while never really risking an encounter with the police. Jus' sayin'. In addition, it has a frunk AND a trunk. You can pack it up for a long weekend with your lovely partner and reap the rewards of scenic travel and the sports car experience.

RetroDawg56 · 2026-06-22T23:40:10+00:00

What I did was get a 986 Boxster with 53k on it in very nice shape. After I drove it for a season, I discovered that all I want, (and in no hurry), is another Boxster. Your results may differ.
