Suggestion
Our frunk is definitely a plus, but at the same token, people with those cars don't have to open their tops halfway, fold the back of it up, remove the rear speaker enclosure, engine cover carpeting, and then the engine cover itself just to replace an air filter or top off power steering fluid.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Just came back from the autoshow in Toronto.
Looked at all the convertibles, 370Z, Z4, Miata... all have similar trunk size to the Boxster!
But they all have no frunk!!!!!! That's the crazy part.
I don't know how people can live without the frunk.
Those Germans, they're damn good with their engineering.
Our frunk is definitely a plus, but at the same token, people with those cars don't have to open their tops halfway, fold the back of it up, remove the rear speaker enclosure, engine cover carpeting, and then the engine cover itself just to replace an air filter or top off power steering fluid. It's an exercise just to get to your engine!
Boxtaboy..... Not all of us can be as cool as you with a rear speakers
JK.. When the spring comes I may have to source out some rear speakers.
I got junk in my frunk!
All I have in mine is a hard to get open little compartment with a can of fix a flat and a rediculous little compressor. There is a cute little spot in it to put my wheel lock key.......
I call the other one the "runk."
I love to open the runk, with people watching, and decide what I'm carrying won't fit and go open the frunk to put it in.
Love to watch the headscratching, trying to figure out where the hell that car's motor is!
It's impossible to access the engine from above with the Zeintop on, unless you have previously removed the soft top (which I have done, and intend to do every winter), in which case the engine access is only a bit
more
difficult. Otherwise, the Zeintop must be completely removed for engine access, a 10-minute, 3-person job for removal and then again for re-installation.
That is kind of a bummer, I was hoping it would be easier with the zeintop. I am planning on taking my soft top out completely and keeping it as a coupe.
