She's gone. *sniff, sniff*

The Boxster was driven out of my garage tonight and is no longer mine. There is now a big empty space where it used to be. I watched as the new owner drove off and I thought "damn, that car is cool". We had some good times. The only things keeping me cool about it are the prospect of having a nice swimming pool and spa and the possibility that I can have another fun car someday soon. There will be other Porsches, BMW's, whatevers.

I'm out of the Porsche Club... for now.

Sorry to hear that, but your pool and backyard will be worth it and as you said, in the future, there will always be other Porsches!

Sorry to hear that, man. The memory of a guy driving off with your PCar will fade the minute you jump into your pool.

Nonetheless, it's still sad to see.

Kev,

Cars will come and cars will go... Just be glad you got to break her in.
Good luck with your pool..

Best,
B

I understand how it feels. Just think about your next toy car!

I feel your pain.

That is the combo I am shooting for. An X5 and a Boxster.

The good news is that at least you are still in the X5 club

Time heals all wounds. I felt very much the same when my M3 cabrio drove out the driveway for the last time several years ago, but the X5 and the family that developed here at X5world convinces me daily that I made the right choice

Somebody cue that sad music they played at the end of the Incredible Hulk TV Show...

Kev, look at it this way, you've just gotten a few thou richer- you've dropped the bills for the car, and the house value is gonna zoom with the addition of the pool!

Thanks fellas. I do feel right about the decision. It's made easier knowing that I'm doing the right thing and that I still have a "cool" car. The X5 is a damn fine ride so it ain't like I'll going to riding the 32 window limo.
