1998 Boxster

1998 Porsche 986 Boxster was when I lost my virginity to the marque. My impulse buy of the century. I saw one on the road going south on Lower State Road at the Bristol Rd. intersection. I made a left, went to Holbert's and had a deposit down an hour later.

The car turned heads even more than the new 911 as I had it when they were scarce. Got rid of it in 2001 and was hooked on Audi S4s for a while (still have one).

1986 Carrera

Purchased in late 2004 for my 50th birthday, what a cure for any mid-life crisis.  It began as a Sunday driver, then I did my first track event with it and was hooked. It was stock save for SSIs and modified exhaust.  Need bigger brakes and stiffer suspension, so....

2006 Cayman

Need more photos, but nothing beats the experience behind the wheel. See Robert Woolslager at Holbert's for a great deal. The car sings, go's like h--l and corners likes its on rails. This ain't your mothers Boxster. Desktop images below
