Picked up the poseurmobile
 

... although I've confirmed that the Boxster does, indeed have a dry sump. Though the big canvas "sunroof" moves me solidly into Poseurdom.

It's a year 2000 S, 6-speed, only performance enhancing option is the 18" wheel package. Every other "option" it has would be standard on any modern-day Kia.

Overall: It's fun. It could use a sportier alignment - I think it has zero camber up front but can be adjusted to -0.7 degrees. It doesn't "feel" fast - the engine feels equally torquey everywhere in the rev range and it's geared very tall. But it turns in quickly and crisply, holds a line well, and is pretty planted even with bonehead lift-throttle moves. I think it'll be a nice daily driver / occasional autocrosser for a couple of years. :D

:celebrat:

...but I'd still like to drive it sometime.

:thumbup: Looks like it's in great shape too. Have fun with it!

Yellow huh?! :D

That's one of the few yellows that I think looks good on a car.

Nick: Anytime you like.

ff: Thanks.

Bren: You had to see that coming. :dunno:

nice.

Do you limit your potential car purchases to only yellow models?

LOL.

Actually it was just the nicest one I found, by far. It seems by and large, Boxster owners don't take care of their cars very well.

Looks nice; congratulations.

How does it feel to be driving a Cayman convertible?
