John is not your normal Porsche 986 owner. Him and his wife like taking long cross country driving vacation trips. He spent most of his driving life in a Mazda Miata, but dreamed of owning a mid-engined Porsche Boxster. That dream came true in 2015, but he didn't rush the decision. He spent many months researching all the ins and outs of the Porsche 986 Boxster, but discovered more than he bargained for.
The Porsche 996 is considered one of the most unusual among all models of 911, but while many people dwell on the "fried egg headlights", it has become one of the most successful Porsche 911 in company history.
