Porsche Car Covers For Top Protection

Article by Hitesh Bhoi

In owning a high quality roadster such as a Porsche Boxster you are making a statement that you value quality, engineering, speed, luxury, and reliability. Few cars can match all that a Boxster does in effectively combining an exhilarating sports car ride with a sensible price. Still, owning any Porsche is an investment and you must take care to protect that investment. A custom fitted is something to consider to properly shield your Porsche.

After spending over sixty thousand dollars for your new Porsche, why is it that the one investment that can save you thousands of dollars is often overlooked? What I am talking about is a Porsche car cover. A car cover is a reasonably priced accessory that should be standard equipment for any vehicle. For only a few hundred dollars a custom fitted car cover will protect your car from:

Damaging rays of the sun. If you leave your car outside for any length of time, the sun’s rays will damage your car’s finish.Harmful moisture. A high quality will protect your car’s finish from moisture. Acid rain, sleet, snow, and hail can permanently damage your car.Bird poop. You may not park your car under a tree, but the birds sure are attracted to its shine. Not getting to the poop soon enough can be costly to your paint.Minor impacts. No, a won’t protect your car in all circumstances, but a high quality cover is designed to absorb small impacts.Nosey neighbors. You own a Boxster and everyone want to peer in and look at it…rubbing up against your car, scratching the finish, damaging the paint!Insects. Who wants to see their car become home to every insect imaginable? With a custom fitted cover on your Porsche, bugs won’t zone in on something that isn’t hospitable to them.Hello, Kitty. Don’t you just love it when Puss ‘N Boots walks all over your car leaving his tiny little footprints behind? Dust, dirt, air pollution. Even garaged cars can be damaged by dust.

When selecting a car cover there are some things to consider:

Is it guaranteed? You should be able to return it if it doesn’t live up to its promises.How many layers is it? Premium offer the most protection; four layers are the norm.Is it custom fitted for your Porsche? No one sized-fits all cars covers, please!Are side mirror pockets included? For maximum fit, insist on this feature.

You spent a nice amount of money on your Porsche. Do not neglect it and forego a car cover. Protect your investment with a high quality from a leading manufacturer such as Covercraft.

Answer by C7S
I have driven the 98 model.
It was great and lots of fun and very fast for a 200HP car.
I did not like the convertible top because it was broken and confusing.

It was jammed. And when I pushed the power button to open the top, a warning light came on for the power top, which I couln’t turn off.

Make sure the top is in good condition and working.

History Of Porsche

History Of Porsche

Article by Jeff Slokum

The history of Porsche began in 1948, June 8th to be exact. That is when the first two seater 356 was produced. There were 51 hand built Porsche 356/2 automobiles built in Austria. This model had a 40 hp 1.1 liter center engine.

The Porsche 911 rear engine automobile was introduced in 1963. It has been one of the biggest selling sports cars in the world. Over one million have been sold.

Porsche has a new offering for the sports car enthusiast in 2006. Positioned between the Boxster S and 911 Carrera, and marketed as an alternative to the BMW Z4 and the Mercedes SLK, the Cayman S is to start appearing in showrooms in January 2006 and will carry a price tag of ,900.00. Porsche is only offering this hot-rod Cayman S and will not say when they will offer an entry level model.

The Cayman S is a two seater modified version of the Boxster convertible. The Cayman has a 295 hp 3.4 liter six cylinder mid-engine that goes from 0-60 mph in an impressive 5.1 seconds. Similar to the Boxster S, the Cayman S has a precise six speed manual gearbox with a double inertia flywheel and hydraulic clutch and power rear wheels. The Porsche Active Suspension Management is an electronic damping control system that is an option on the Cayman S. Switched on this system assures a smooth ride and it improves stability and grip for sharper steering responses.

Inside the Cayman S offers an on-board computer system with continuous indication of mileage, time and speed, automatic climate control, digital radio with in dash CD and a 7 speaker Bose Surround Sound System.

Porsche expects the new Cayman S to attract the upwardly mobile market. The company expects that Cayman buyers will be customers moving up from the Porsche Boxster.
