Thanks yes I'm enjoying the Porker a lot...... 2500 miles on the clock now so well run in

Its (a new Boxster S for others watching) plenty fast in a straight line (not too much slower than the SLK55) but it can corner at insane speeds....... when I first got the car it didn't feel that much quicker than my old S2000 but now that I'm more familiar with how it drives it is markedly better....... I can now take corners faster in the Box that already felt super quick in the Honda.

Pics here (if the link works):
