Default My new S2

Darrell was kind enough to part with this baby and I could not resist. Here are a few pictures from the for sale thread. I'll get some new shots up in a few days.







I was looking for one of these when I bought the Boxster but could not find one in great shape. One look at this car and the rest is history. My wife does not understand this hobby although she puts up with just about anything with one exception, she has a two p-car limit so eventually the Boxster needs to go.

See you guys at the track.

Regards

Gotta love a used p-car purchase that does not require instant influx of $. Congrats.

Gotz a nice set of 8 & 9 x 16 2 peice BBS wheels with caps, gold webbing that would make nice track wheels. Use them on the Chickster win/win!

Thanks Dave but I want to return the Boxster very close to stock before putting her up for sale, tail lights, side markers, spacers etc. I'll probably leave the sound system in the car although I am still undecided about that.

She is rolling on a set of 17" hollow twist and those would make great track wheels for the S2.

For this, I recommend the left hand suzuki method.

I"m available to scoop up any Boxster goodies you may decide to shed. Keep me in mind, especially the part about the wheel spacers or sound system stuff. Oh, and congrats on new car.

I have a set of the original side marker lights from my 996 (amber). I think they fit the Boxster. If they do and you want them you can have them.

Jim,

Thanks I have the stock parts so the car should go back together fairly quickly.
