It's a 2013 Porsche 981 Boxster.
Don't worry, I still have the Hyundai and the Mitsubishi.

Waiting for the bike rack discussion

The question will be:

"Since I have a soft top, I can't mount those suction cup racks on my roof. Was thinking of mounting it on the passenger door instead and retrofitting it so the bike is upright. Anyone see a problem with this?"

3 pages of comments about how it is a bad idea and Mar still goes ahead and does it. But then gets a ticket shortly after when he encounters a cop.

Edit: Mostly kidding of course, 10% serious.

I'm very disappointed that there wasn't a multi-page thread with people telling you not to buy it before you bought it, but nevertheless that looks great - congrats!

But I don't think anyone would have told him not to buy it so there'd have to be a different angle!

I am not surprised he didn't post about it here first. Everyone would have told him not to get a female car like the Boxster. lol. Perhaps myself included, haha.

Great car man, enjoy it. Congrats.

I realized I don't actually have another photo of the car, besides this one my girlfriend took when I picked it up. I had to cut myself out and that's all that's left.

Oh I learned my lesson last time with you guys! I thought about posting to ask but it would have been incredibly embarrassing to ask about a Porsche and then not buy it. The funniest part was someone mentioned me in another thread about asking for car advice the day before I picked it up. I thought that was pretty coincidental and considered mentioning it then.

I still have the bike rack on the old Hyundai! It's actually great when going downtown, I park far away and ride 5 minutes to my destination. I'm too cheap to pay for parking, need to pay for that 91 octane somehow.


Nice, best time of the year to buy a sports car.
Yes except I keep staring at it in the garage and can't drive it. I'm freezing my ass off parking on the street now because there's no more room in the garage.

I sure did. Are they known here for something? I thought they were nice.

If I am not mistaken, they are definitely known here but not in a good way. In fact, there had been several threads of them scamming people after making sales and whatnot. Or am I thinking of some other dealership?

I think this dealer is good. Used them before. Not Gallery of Fine Cars or Threadz

Calgary Auto Quest and Calgary Auto Connection are the 2 that have good reputations as far as I've read on beyond.

Congrats on the car! I haven't bought from them, but I've looked at cars at Calgary Auto Quest and had good interactions both times.
