This week's picture was submitted by Brad, earning him a whoppin 5 additional entries in our Porsche Giveaway. I liked his commentsHere's what he had to say about the picture:
I have this great pic of a Boxster S. I have a couple reasons for submitting it. Please oblige me. To help out the Porsche perfect gallery for one. To get the Boxster some deserved recognition. Just look at this little car. To me it's gorgeous and although its Porsche's so labeled "entry level "car, nothing about this car looks it!
That's always disappointed me a bit when its referred to as entry level in order to play it down. Yes it is, but it's a beautiful Porsche nonetheless and thank Porsche for making their so called entry level car so beautiful! If this is a freshmen effort….It says so much about ALL their cars!
I also note the Boxster has a basic shape that can be seen in the current flagship of all Porsche`s…….The Carrera GT….. Makes you think a bit more about the deserved respect the Boxster should get…I am passionate about the "starter" (Boxster) as i am the Daddy of them all! (Carrera GT)
NOTE! I LOVE the setting the car is in also. Helps lend some class to the Boxster S. Take note of the scenery! Its in an upscale plaza.
I love the setting of the car as well. Reminds me of the walking streets in Germany. I'm a sucker for those types of settings. Especially when they have a little coffee shop you can sit in.

I'm admittedly not the biggest Boxster fan, but I've got to say I wouldn't mind climbing behind the wheel of that one for a cruise on that nice sunny day.

Brad, if you dropped me in any urban area of Florida (except the keys), I'd say "hey – looks like Tampa". I think there's only one commercial architect style for the whole state, so every building is pink coral stucco w/ spanish arches.

Hey Ryan, can you take some more pics of your Porsche? With the weather we've been having locally I bet you could get some that look as great as Naples, FL!
