Default Re: Ok I broke down and bought ANOTHER + questions

Driving an '06 Boxster with 4,700 miles on it. I bought it a year ago this week with 3,900 miles. Carrera white with white gauges and white roll hoops. Black leather interior, 18" Boxster S wheels with colored Porsche crests, sport exhaust pipes and custom 4 piece embroidered mats with Porsche crests for the interior and 2 trunks. Drives more like the sports car I really was looking for (I've been looking for a replacement for the first NEW car I ever owned, a 1973 TR6 for 30 years now). Smaller interior feel, 5 speed trans. etc.. Love the Porsche ownership experience, great National club, great NY Metro club, tons of aftermarket OEM and non OEM stuff. BUT... its not a Crossfire. I think the Crossfire has equal or better build quality and the thing I loved most about it, its unique. Not that I see tons of Boxsters but I never see Crossfires. I haven't ruled out getting another some day. If prices don't turn around and start to go up I might consider one when my current lease is up on my daily driver ('08 VW Jetta 2.0T). Perhaps I'd look for a very low mileage Coupe. We'll see. Anything else you need to know just let me know. I'll Private message you my phone so you can call if you want. Take care. Oh yeh, I had the oil changed at the dealer and I know they used Mobil 1 synthetic but I don't know the weights, sorry.
