I am fairly certain the cars suspension was completly re-done by the previous owner. Don't ask me about the specifics, all I know is that it was a PIA to change the cams on that car, but Porcshe heads can take a beating and still look like they have 20,000 miles on them.

Porsche's vs Camaro? Porsche vs Corvette - Now thats on the same type of car performance vs performance, even though the Corvette has proven a better car the last few years racing record wise. Welcome to the C5R.
Boxster's are nice cars, but they are no 911 or Carrera GT, as has been stated.

How did this change into Boxster conversation? I consider those overpriced miatas, or the wannabe porsches. Mostly women drive them around Houston, which is cool. The car isn't bad looking or anything, but I'd rather have a Vette for around the same price. Really sucks that you can't access the engine anywhere from the top of the car, it has to be on a lift.
Just proves that most Porsche owners don't get their hands dirty

Interesting. Mullets vs. ricers.
Oh, and I know that some of you guys aren't the brightest bulbs on the tree but if you can somehow find a way to spell boxster correctly maybe I can find the right way to spell cumaro.
Oh, and I wouldn't worry about your car too much on the autocross track... You have to get to the corners before you can turn, and that's something I would be doing long before you. I know you like your underpowered sissy Boxster's pretty good handling, and think it helps you get some tail, and you think that you are better than us, but you might want to reconsider flaming Camaro, Firebird and Vette owners on an LS1 site- you will get
Most people on this site probably know more about your Porsche than you do. Now, BEAT IT.
Sorry for the flame, but you really didn't have anything tangible to post in the first place, and that is also irritating.

He is the adminstrater? Wow, how professional. I see you guys take after him with the insults and flames. Learned from the best! Some of you guys think that f-bods never lose which is sad because they do all the time and sometimes even to "slow" cars like the boxster s. There is one variable in car racing called the DRIVER and I think that some of you guys have ignored that, which is a big mistake. You just see it as car vs. car and that is terribly nearsighted and thickheaded of you. You guys have your heads way far up each others asses.

Coming from someone who listed himself as "Porsche Daddy", I'm wondering if you are one of those gay guys I see driving a Boxster, with a sugar-daddy.
Please spare us your elitist attitude just because you drive a Porsche, of course we know about driver factor on this site. You aren't the one that first figured that out, so don't pretend to enlighten us.
Its obvious most of us here know more about cars than you do.....look at what you chose to purchase.
Changed your own oil lately? Oh, thats right, you don't have a hood to access the engine. Probably carry driving gloves in your car too huh? Don't want to damage that manicure.

Yes he is the admin, and i am sure he has no problem buying a porsche as well. I know that F-bodies can do, because i OWN ALL FORDS. I know what GM can make as well as fords. Driver is always the biggest variable, simply because no human is the same. I am the most NON BIASED person on the sight towards ls1's or any other car for that matter.

Some of us get Summit catalogs in the mail, and others get L.L Bean and Ambercrombie and Fist. I bet he got a snazzy little Porsche keychain when he bought that thing.
Add Boxters to my list of hated cars. Right up there with the NeonNeonNeon-4's.
