Pristine Porsche Boxster S (986s) 3.2l 6 Speed Manual Meridian Silver on 2040-cars
Dundee, Illinois, United States
2001 Porsche Boxster S (986S) with 115k miles. Very clean and fully serviced at 109k miles, oil was also changed again with Mobil 1 last month (<500 miles ago). I personally inspected the oil filter and sent the oil to be analyzed.
The Boxster S upgrades over the base model: • 247hp 3.2L engine, the base engine is much slower • 6 speed manual transmission • dual exhaust • different front bumper • the "Big Red" Porsche brakes Looks and drives like a car with less than half the miles! Runs and drives very smooth. The pre-purchase inspection was preformed by German Motor Werks, where the car was given a clean bill of health. Anything that was found, has been taken care of. A nicely equipped S, that clearly has had a good life. Never been in the snow or salt. No issues, no leaks, no stories, just a wonderful driving Porsche Boxster S that needs nothing. This Porsche is faster, smoother, and drives nicer than comparable S2000's and MX5's. Here is the work that was just completed: • Brakes -- Rotors and pads front and rear. • New spark plugs. • All new belts. • All new fluids -- cooling system, brake fluid, transmission fluid and oil. The last two done with synthetic oil. • New Bilstein HD shocks and a new alignment, which is the best thing to do when you change any suspension parts. • Drain plugs/channel under the top has been thoroughly cleaned so they drain properly. A common thing that is not done on these cars. • Front bumper removed so they could properly clean out the front radiators. This Porsche Boxster S has: • power convertible top in great shape, crystal clear rear window • matching set of Continental DWS high performance all season tires • power everything • cruise control • cold AC • cd player Youtube walk around video here: http://youtu.be/HgmLh3VxCd4 Available for inspection near Elgin, IL. 847-417-5611 I will be throwing in the book "101 Projects for Your Porsche Boxster" by Wayne R. Dempsey to the highest bidder. |

Son of Porsche 911 designer recalls 1963 Frankfurt debut
Wed, 16 Oct 2013
The Goodwood Revival is described by its presenters as the greatest motorsport racing party of the year. We often focus heavily on the motorsports, but you can't forget about the party. For the first preview of the new 911 Turbo in the UK, Porsche recreated its booth from the Frankfurt Motor Show in 1963 - the time and place of the original 911's public debut.
Porsche's cameras also caught up with Mark Porsche, the great grandson of Dr. Ferdinand Porsche and son of the late Ferdinand Alexander "Butzi" Porsche, who oversaw the design of the 911. Mark Porsche admires the 911's friendly design, which is set off by the round headlights, and says his mother, who was at the original Frankfurt booth in 1963, was milling around the booth at Goodwood - no doubt taking a trip down memory lane.
2015 Porsche Cayman GTS
Thu, 29 May 2014The Porsche Boxster and Cayman will forever nip at the heels of their big brother, the 911 Carrera, and perpetuating this tradition are the latest GTS variants, which add yet another arrow to the quiver of the plucky mid-engined platform.
The GTS' performance enhancements boost horsepower by a mere 15 and shave a tenth from 0 to 60, but Porsche's clever product planners and engineers have stuck to their familiar formula in making the Cayman GTS more desirable than the Boxster for dyed-in-the-wool performance enthusiasts. More on that shortly.
Laps around Spain's Circuito Mallorca RennArena and the nearby Serra de Tramuntana mountain range would shed further light on how the GTS differentiates itself from lesser Caymans.
Porsche 919 Hybrid revives Porsche's factory Le Mans efforts
Tue, 04 Mar 2014After months of teasing with camouflaged testers, Porsche has finally unveiled its prototype entry for the 2014 World Endurance Championship, the 919 Hybrid. Porsche, you may recall, hasn't had campaigned a factory team at Le Mans in years, so the 919 is nothing less than their recommitment to endurance racing.
Combining a 2.0-liter V4 (yes, a V4) that revs to 9,000 rpm, the 919 produces around 500 horsepower with a pair of energy recovery systems. The first system recovers the heat energy from exhaust gasses as they pass through an electrical generator, while the second system is a bit more familiar. Using a setup similar to what is found on the production 918 Spyder, a generator on the front axle recovers kinetic energy from the brakes, which is subsequently stored in a battery system. That power can then be sent to the front wheels at the driver's command, effectively turning the 919 into an all-wheel-drive racecar.
Despite these various forms of motivation, Porsche doesn't claim to be seeking outright power supremacy, with Chairman Matthias Müller saying, "In 2014, it will not be the fastest car that wins the World Endurance Championship series and the 24 hours of Le Mans, rather it will be the car that goes the furthest with a defined amount of energy. And it is precisely this challenge that carmakers must overcome. The 919 Hybrid is our fastest mobile research laboratory and the most complex race car that Porsche has ever built."
