I was at C&C the other day going thru their SLK & SL models.? Thinking of trading in the E46 for one of them.? Do you know that they actually offer the L7 as an option?

Hi Edlee, Have you considered the new Boxster S?

Personally i would rather get the 911 rather than the boxter S.. It's much better looking and it's a new model for 2005.. Pricewise i doubt it's a lot of diff..

Just my 2 cents worth..

In sg, cheapest 911 is the Carrera coupe at S$414K and goes all the way to 911GT2 at S$860K. That is a hell lot of difference with the entry level Porsche Boxter S at close to S$280K! Dude!

Sorry about that zag, because in US the diff between 911 carerra and Boxter S is about $15k.

What time at Russo's joint this Saturday? I will try if after 3.

I am not sure what are the prices posted at the website, but I read in the paper that the Boxter goes for $280k while the Boxter S is another $50k more, excluding COE. What is another 50k when you are already here? Hardtop for the new Boxter is not available yet.

BMW530, its our pleasure to have you as our guest-of-honour

Was at Leng Kee today. The Boxter is 250K+ for the 2.7L and about 280K+ for the Boxter S. The coupe will be out within the next 2 years. The Carerra 997S is selling for about 462K. All prices quoted are before options which can set you back by about 50K.

4)Member status such as newbie, addict, fanatic etc so that we know how 'on the ball' the member is just by looking at the decal.
[snapback]90396[/snapback]
This may be a little bit tough as the status initially changes quite fast, from Newbie to veteran member I think takes about 200 posts only.

No, won't be written. It'll be typed neatly onto a transparent scotchtape with a ribbon typing machine and pasted onto the front of the decal. Its really simple. Same goes for the member status. Easy to change too. Clean and without hassle.

Sure thing. I'll run through your paintwork and give you some pointers and advice on maintaining your babe for that shiny look and sparkling clean rims.

Its located at 21 Toh Guan Road East #01-20 Toh Guan Centre. Is a orange and green building. In fact it is located in the industrial park just behind IMM. Its facing the PIE so if you enter the building you have to drive to either end of the building and go up the slope to the other side.

For AYE towards Jurong, exit at Clementi Ave 6. For PIE, exit at Bukit Batok Ave 3.

I think what Russo means is that he'll use one of those labelling machines with transparent adhesives.

I think having membership status is a little off the mark. Membership number, member since and veh number should suffice.

So, will 1530 hours on Saturday be okay? Whoever wants to make a difference pls make an effort to turn up.
