I am reluctantly selling my beautiful 2007 Porsche Boxster S convertible. Driven a low and perfect 10 thousand miles a year, this Boxster S is stunning in Artic Silver over a medium charcoal interior. I refer to the mileage as perfect because that's how a Porsche mechanic would describe it. What you should look for in a used Porsche is one that's been consistently driven, and not laid up for long periods of time. This was news to me, but as it was explained, if a car like this sits a long time, the seals dry out and when it starts being driven again under normal circumstances, it's a lot more likely to develop oil leaks, etc. Plus, if there was any major problem, it would usually show up within the first 30 to 40 thousand miles. For the record, this car has no leaks whatsoever, and no issues at all, so you get the stability of a proven track record, plus the lower price compared to the other 07s on ebay, that being under 30 thousand dollars.
This gorgeous convertible is very striking and I've added a few personal touches to make it stand out from the pack. First, I changed out the ugly orange front side lamp markers with clear ones that give the car a much newer, sleeker look. I also changed out the dull gray factory rear Boxster S emblems with new chrome finish emblems that really pop. I also added the rear gold Porsche crest where the designers should have put one in the first place (: I think the side Porsche Graphics add so much to this car as do the front fender Porsche crests. The nice thing is, if you don't like the crests, they are magnetic, simply pull them off.
This 2007 Porsche Boxster S has always been garaged and never smoked in. I live in Florida, and have only driven it in nice weather. The power top is pristine and operates perfectly. In fact, the car basically starts, stops, runs, handles, looks and even smells like new. Seats are mint, carpet and mats look like new, with no stains or dirt. I am very picky about how clean my cars are, so this vehicle is vacuumed weekly, interior is conditioned every couple of weeks, and paint and glass are kept as clear and shiny as I can keep them.
I've owned other sports convertibles, BMW, Lexus, Mazda, but I must admit, no other car has been as fun to drive as this Porsche. Being a mid-engine car, it is perfectly balanced, so it goes exactly where you want, when you want. It's almost like you, the car, and the road become one... And that's a nice trifecta! Another thing I love is the tiptronic transmission. Yes, the 6 speed can be fun, but in all practicality, if you do any city driving at all, it becomes nothing but a chore. I know, I've had both. With the tiptronic, you get the best of both worlds. Shift through the gears manually with the finger tip controls or opt for the no-hassle automatic mode.
The original owner of this little Porsche was a retired Doctor who took the car on some cross country trips, which accounts for a majority of the miles. I am the second owner, a 49 year old business person with 4 kids, so while I enjoy cruising, I've never driven the car hard or in a reckless manner. I just find it nice to know the power is there if I ever need it. Plus, the Boxster S with its painted brake calipers and added styling touches is so much more attractive than the base model. I don't know about you, but when I buy a car, I always go for the highest trim level I can afford. I just figure I'll enjoy it more and it'll have a higher residual when I sell it, so really, it all evens out cost-wise. One other thing the Porsche mechanic told me... And I quote, "If all we worked on was Boxsters, we'd be outta business." That was music to my ears as someone who didn't want to spend the money or put up with the problems of a 911. And it's true... This being the second boxster S I've owned... first was a 2003 S... I've had ZERO problems with either. Just basic maintenance, and normal wear and tear stuff, tires, brakes, etc. They really are so well built; it's amazing.
Well, that's about it. The car is fabulous, tight and fun. It's offered in gorgeous as-is condition with shipping the responsibility of the buyer, although I will assist in any way that I can. A $1000 dollar deposit is required within 48 hours of auction's end and is non-refundable unless the car has been misrepresented. I welcome any inspections and will be happy to answer any questions. You may reach me on my cell between 11am and 8pm Est. 727-254-8494.
Thank-you and happy bidding!

Porsche bringing Macan S Diesel to US instead of 4-cylinder [w/poll]
Mon, 16 Dec 2013When Porsche unveiled the new Macan at the LA Auto Show, it announced two powerplants for the US market, both of them twin-turbo V6s: the Macan S equipped with 340 horsepower from its 3.0-liter engine, and the Macan Turbo with 400 horses from 3.6 liters. But those aren't the only engines Porsche will offer in its new compact crossover. Porsche is also offering the Macan S Diesel overseas with 258 hp, and reports have since indicated that a pair of four-cylinder models on their way: a 2.0-liter turbo four with 280 hp and four-pot turbodiesel of the same capacity with an as-yet undisclosed output.
Now Car and Driver is reporting that while those four-cylinder engines won't be making the transatlantic voyage to our shores, Porsche will offer the aforementioned Macan S Diesel in North America beginning in early 2015, nearly a year after the gas V6 versions arrive.
The 3.0-liter turbodiesel V6 is based on the same engine found in the Cayenne Diesel and the Audi Q5 TDI on which the Macan is based. Of course, its 248 hp is substantially less than the 340 ponies in the Macan S, but its 413 pound-feet of torque outshines not only the 339 lb-ft in the Macan S but also the 406 lb-ft in the Macan Turbo. Acceleration times, however, suggest the Macan S Diesel is still slower, with a 6.3-second run to 62 mph than neither the Macan S (5.4 sec) or Macan Turbo (4.8). The good news is that the Macan S Diesel is tipped to undercut the price of both, dropping the oil-burning crossover's MSRP below that of the $49,900 starting price for the Macan S and the $49,600 for the base Cayenne. If that C/D prediction comes to pass, that will make it the Macan S Diesel most affordable Porsche sold.
Porsche 911 GT2 RS vs. Mercedes SLS AMG Black in battle of who can shred more rubber
Fri, 04 Apr 2014We might be looking at the end of an era in European performance models. Mercedes-Benz is doing away with the SLS in favor of a rumored smaller and cheaper SLC, and Porsche has said that a new 911 GT2 isn't necessarily a sure thing, which means another 911 GT2 RS is even farther away. In its latest video, Evo's Jethro Bovingdon pits the ultimate versions of these German sports coupes against each other and finds two of the fastest cars the magazine has ever lapped around its track.
In one corner, there is the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series that sits as the pinnacle of the company's halo model. It relies on the classic setup of a V8 mounted in front powering the rear wheels. On the other side, there is the 911 GT2 RS with a turbocharged flat-six mounted at the back, spinning the rear wheels. It was conceived to be Porsche's ultimate expression of a turbocharged 911, and while it's a few years old, Bovingdon shows that it's up to the task of racing a more modern rival.
Both of these rear-wheel-drive monsters are more than capable of some fantastically smoky power-slides, but they also show how great the last generation of sports cars was. Scroll down to check out the video.
Overnight action from the 24 Hours of Le Mans
Sun, 23 Jun 2013We won't go into a recap here, but there are still leading positions being fought for in all classes - it's so close that leads are changing when a car goes into the pits. We'll let the recap wait until the end of the race, so for now enjoy some shots from last night's action at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
