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.

23 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

http://www.news-press.com/article/20...uth-Fort-Myers not good. also there's so much weirdness in that article. boxster serviced at a shell station, owner still willing to service vehicles there. mechanic "test" driving at 6AM, hiding in a parking lot after the crash. 163 MPH?! and the mechanic runs away and hides. too weird.

POST 2Original post

The car looks fairly intact for a crash at that speed

POST 3Original post

there is an old Chevron in my area (real close to where Bill Gates lives) and every time I drive by I see exotics being serviced... some places have a good rep for that.... and I am guessing the guys/gals who take there car there would be happy to find out the owner was not injured as they understand a car (esp a Boxster) can be replaced.... Not saying they might not be a little upset that it happened and question why he was going so fast, but the bottom line for something like this is "if money can fix the problem, then there isnt really a problem...." testiment to the P-car construction... glad the service guy was willing to give it the full monty test drive

POST 4Original post

What? I thought Boxsters couldn't be crashed, what with their perfect mid-engine balance and all?

POST 5Original post

Yes in LA there are actually quite a few Shells and Chevrons that service higher end cars in the nice areas.

POST 6Original post

BTW Porsche posted top speed at 162... so obviously the microsecond it hit 163 the car was out of spec and all hell broke loose. Never push beyond the cars engineer limits

POST 7Original post

"Kantor said Kasten told him he was speeding because he was upset, but Kantor didn't specify why Kasten was upset." The rest of the story............ "Later it was learned that he was out trying to pick up chics. When he learned his ugly *** required a 911 to do so he got really up set"

No you have it confused with the perfect balance of a 928

POST 9Original post

for me - its gonna take more than just one 911 to pick up chicks.......

POST 11Original post

reminds me of my past car. Dealer tech crashed my fairly new car north of 120 mph out running errands. here's a view from the news chopper.

POST 12Original post

That guy is lucky, the mangroves reduced the damage. Had he hit a tree or pole I doubt he could have been able to run off to hide in a parking lot. Rick 99 996C4 87 944S

POST 13Original post

What? Did he learn that driving fast because of watching TV or what? Where do people get the idea of driving fast when they are upset? Likely excuse being mad. I would more believe he just blew it driving the car.

.... yeah, like a sock in your pants and a fist full of 100 dollar bills! Hey, since yesterday was "THE DAY" for not making fun of you, I needed to get back in form in a big way! < Tim thinks to himself > If I ever get the chance to meet Ed in person, I just know that the first thing he is going to do is punch me in the face!

Quotes source post: 7266355

I promised Ed I would go one entire day this week without making fun of him. Tuesday and Wednesday I tried really hard to avoid doing that, but was unsuccessful. But I succeded yesterday! So today, it's back into "normal" mode.

POST 17Original post

You say that - but I am gonna google those Honda forums later tonight and check!

POST 18Original post

FHP estimated damage @ 50,000....LOL I guess thats the end of that.

POST 19Original post

Quotes source post: 7267284

Yah I was thinking $50,000? 50 my tail, its totalled.

POST 20Original post

The guy deserves a serious beating. UNLESS, he ponies up for a 2010 Boxster S to replace it... Then to me, all is forgiven.

oh? haha 911s attract hookers, jailbait & gold diggers. And dudes. yea 1st thing i thought was the listed top speed on the last 2.7 boxster i saw was 159. Ouch, was he drag racing that Audi? Any pics of the hot chick?

POST 23Original post

From what I understand it's much easier to pick up gay rollerbladers in a Boxter.
