    Not a huge fan of slammed cars but you could literally eat off any part of this car. Clean as fuck. Kid I know through some friends owns this:





    will edit with higher res pics when I get home, mobile upload is shit apparently

    I like the lines on the Z3 M convertible a little better, but I gotta respect the "clownshoe", definitely one of the most unique sportscars of the era.

    Lol.. thanks guys. Just back in GCCO. The first 650 miles were good. No interior pics yet.. Soon. If I didn't have the awd requiremrnt, I'd own a couple of 3.2s already. They're fun. Driving season for those up here is about 4 months/year though. Just not worth it. More pics to come.

    I have to apologize for every time I attributed CO traffic to "midwesterners". Apparently, the midwesterners in KS know how to drive just fine. Get back to CO and it's pricks and morons everywhere. Drove up the canyon behind a dude doing 37 up to the passing lane, and then accelerating to 60 to keep people from passing him. No match for the R though, much to his chagrin.

    Looking forward to the next time a Native conflates liking CO with liking Coloradans.

    Shit, if I had an extra $50k laying around I'd be tempted to scoop this one up. It may not be concours ready, but it's damn close.


    Ooooh, dibs!

    I wonder what kind of a pain it would be to title and import a CDN car and how relatively annoying the metric clusters would be day to day?
    Sorry. Both ugly. I'll take the upside down bathtub.

    I realize and cede fully that its got nothing on a 911, many beemers and some Mercedes convertibles; but I drove those and liked it best. it's not the fastest by a longshot but it's quick, sounds great and I like the looks.

    I and everyone should respect that. If you gave it a go and said, "I like this one!" No one can hate on that. DD or Bunny maybe...

    That's a fantastic looking Boxster. Congrats!

    Revel in the noise you get with the blip...downshift every chance you get.

    That's one of the most frustrating things. Makes me crazy when people do that. Pickup pulling a horse trailer did that to me (and drifted just over the line each time) for almost 20 miles the other day when he forgot about a short zone and I nailed it. Felt good bouncing it off the limiter

    What goes through people's minds when they do that? Seriously. You're driving slow as fuck in the passing lane but then all of a sudden you find the skinny pedal when you force someone to make the unsafe pass on the right? (I actually know assholes like this and ridicule them mercilessly every chance I get)

    Go fuck yourself.

    Fucking love this car! So I live in central Maine where most are poor and have pick up trucks. I got a few "nice car"s, a few trucks trying to race, and equally some drunk frat boys trying to rustle feathers.. Sticks out like a sore thumb. I fucking love this car

    Buying a 10+ year old car what could go wrong?

    Edit. That watch is ugly as it was expensive. Credit where credit is due.

    Interior pics, as promised.












    Just got back from driving an Audi S5, and the R over Squaw Pass... There's no way I'm selling the R. I hadn't realized what a rocket the R is from 40-100. Blew the doors off an STi on 58. I was in the wrong gear when he started beeping, and he pulled out to a car length lead. But when the turbo spooled up, the STi fucking disappeared. I honestly couldn't believe it, but then it did it again to another one on 40 by Heritage Square. Found another guy in a tricked out 370z on Lookout and he tried as hard as he could to shake me, but couldn't.

    It's so much more nimble than the S5, and the Audi trim from 2012 is now the VW trim in 2016. The R stays. That's before we even get to how functional and usable it is compared to the S5... Getting into the backseat of the Audi proved to be a fool's errand. I liked the R already, and was still surprised today by what a good car it is. I'll still go look at the S5 that's coming from TX, mostly to be polite, but I'd be pretty surprised if I changed my mind.
