You could have had some from here yesterday and last night. We got soaked again.

Now this is funny: I bought some new special top cleaner for the Boxster. I don't get it wet too often as that's not good for canvas tops. I don't know what they do in Germany.

So, I wet it down, gently messaged the soap and rinsed. Then, I parked the car in the rain for 30 minutes to get nature's best water to rinse off the stuff we drink around here.

The top looks great. I didn't know you were going to have a thread about rain or I could have taken pics of the idiot (me, who is sick, too) outside washing the car in the rain.

Mark,

I still kick myself not seeing that beauty in person when you lived up here in the jet city.

Here's an old NoVA fun run shot in the rain.



And my beater after a shower.

Yes, I have some but they're off topic so I'll link here some pictures of the same car from PCF's web site. These are on topic

Can someone photoshop Marks car ( front view)...and add small round fog lights ( 5" dia...about 60% headlights size).... right over the front license plate screw holes.....maybe leave the OEM foglights as a wire mesh or something.....

Just thinking out loud....

Russ: If I'm seeing this right, are you driving in the left lane past trucks on I75 in the rain with one hand holding a camera? Wow, brave man. Interesting to see $250,000 worth of plastic muscle cars riding down the road. Wouldn't the whole load equal one CGT?

I love Porsches in the rain. I think that's why I buy so many British Porsche mags...they always photograph them in the rain!
