My Husband Still Feels the Thrill Every Time He Drives Our 6-Year-Old Porsche Boxster GTS

The 6th Year of Our 981 Boxster GTS Our Boxster just passed its second inspection this November. Until now, my husband used to say things like, “I wonder if the time will come to part with the Boxster someday…” But as he’s driven it more, he’s discovered new joys and charms, kept up with maintenance, continued the extended warranty… I think he’s finally decided to keep it for the long haul. That said, he rarely...

But just the other day, I received final confirmation from the client that the trip would proceed...

Getting Back in the Boxster After a Long Time My husband recently said, “I’ll watch the kids, so go drive the car. It’ll be good for a change of pace.” He says things like this as if he were a godsend. Of course, he often goes out driving alone on his days off, but now when he comes home, even without me saying anything, he’ll say, “Why don’t you go drive the car?” I’m truly...
