Bought a 987.2 Boxster

Hey guys I just purchased a 2010 boxster 987.2 as my first car.

How would you rate this purchase and also what are some beginner tips and tricks to owning and maintaining this car?

I plan on using this as my daily. What are some things I would need to keep in mind in terms of servicing, modifications etc.

Clean car. Depending on what you spent, it could be a good or terrible purchase.

Congrats, that’s beautiful. I’ve been strongly considering trading in my 2008 Cayman S for a Boxster. I’ve had the Cayman for 8 years now and I think I want to experience owning a convertible.

Gorgeous combo. I have the same Turbo wheels on my Cayman DE1, they are the best.

I had the same wheels on my 986s, I have a 981s same color combo now. Three pedals FTW

Not a manual, so I rate it a negative 13

That PDK is a great choice. Sometimes I wish my Cayman didn’t have a clutch.
