1997 Porsche Boxster Base Convertible 2-door 2.5l on 2040-cars
Grand Rapids, Michigan, United States
If you are looking for the nicest 1997 Porsche Boxster in the world this
is it. Simply stunning color combination. Grand Prix White over Boxster
Red FULL leather interior which includes the seats, dash and the
insides of the doors. This car is HANDS DOWN the most IMPECCABLE Porsche
you will find in the marketplace. This is a REAL NATIONAL CONCOURSE
CHAMPION SEVERAL TIMES OVER!!!!! I have been collecting cars for over 25
years and have owned every High end sports, exotic and luxury car there
is. I purchased this car only 2 months ago from the Porsche Club of
America Regional Technical Chairman and thought I was ready for a new
toy. I have only put 15 miles on the car since owning it and can tell
you this is the quickest, tightest, best handling, best sounding and
GORGEOUS car you will ever find for less than $20,000. Let alone the
fact that anyone who walks up to it will mistake it for a new car. Being
a father of 3 kids under the age of 5 I am a nervous wreck having it in
the garage. I honestly thought that no one in the world was as OCD as I
was about cars but trust me the previous owner is. This was his baby
for the last 16 years and he was sick to his stomach selling it to me
and now I feel even worse having to sell it to someone else. I can go on
and on about how nice this car is but I would rather you refer to me
feedback. The last sale was my 2007 Lexus LS460 with 18,000 miles on it.
Those of you who truly understand what CONCOURSE QUALITY means will
know and appreciate this car. I would prefer to sell it to someone who
will truly care for it as the previous owner and myself have. The
following paragraph below is the ad from the original owner on EBAY just
2 month ago. He is the most knowledgeable Porsche guy I have ever met
and trust me I know many. His description is true and accurate and the
car in person is nicer than the ad states. Please excuse my photos they
are not the best because they are in the garage. You know the old saying
"YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED". That truly is an understatement when it
comes to this car. Please read the following description carefully.
Please feel free to email me via eBay and I will gladly answer your
questions. I will also happily text you specific photos if you include
your phone number. All I ask is that you don't waste my time. This is
NOT a BASE Boxster. This car has been tastefully modified and is way
over built. If you think this is a fire sale it is not. If you want to
insult me with a low ball offer I will not return your email. My asking
price is very fair when you consider the miles, the condition and the
added equipment to this car which would cost $ 20,000 without the car. I
have been around cars since I was 3 and have sold thousands of cars
throughout my career. If you treat me with respect you will get the same
in return, it is really that simple. There is simply NOT ANOTHER CAR
LIKE this in the world. 1997 Porsche Boxster, 8754 Miles. Perfect in
every way. Grand Prix White with Boxster Red Full Leather Interior,
Sport Package, TPC Supercharger making 5-6 lbs of boost. Approximately
275 HP at the rear wheels. 5-Speed Manual Transmission, H&R Full
Coil-Over Suspension, B&B Polished Stainless Exhaust, 18" Porsche
Sport Classic II Wheels with Michelins, Drilled Rotors, Pagid Orange
Pads, Stainless Steel Brake Lines, Custom Built Rear Chassis Brace,
Porsche Short Shifter with new style Porsche Shift Lever, Boost and AF
Ratio Gauges.
This car was built for show only. Never beaten in any Porsche car show it was ever entered in. Fully detailed undercarriage, engine/transmission and suspension. Never driven in rain, never tracked and never damaged in any way. The car is simply stunning. Even the holes in the drilled rotors were painted black inside.

Porsche kicks off Macan production at revamped Leipzig plant
Sun, 16 Feb 2014After over two years of construction and roughly 500 million euros ($684 million at current rates) invested, Porsche finally opened its Leipzig, Germany, factory expansion on February 11. The improvements to the plant are dedicated to building the Macan and include a new body shop, paint shop and assembly line that are advancing Porsche's goal to sell 50,000 Macan's per year. The company believes that the new model is going to push it to over 200,000 annual sales 3 years ahead of schedule, and the enlarged branch can support even more Macan production, if there is demand.
"We are totally convinced in the qualities of this location and that the Macan will be a marketing success," said Porsche Chairman Matthias Müller during the opening celebration. The company opened its Leipzig factory in 2002 to build the Cayenne and added Panamera production in 2009.
The Macan models are due to launch in the US this summer with prices starting at $49,900. Scroll down to learn all of the details about the Macan's Leipzig assembly plant.
Which is quicker in the standing mile, a Subaru WRX STI or a Porsche Cayman?
Thu, 26 Jun 2014The 2015 Subaru WRX STI and 2014 Porsche Cayman are both saddled with unfair reputations. The STI with its huge wing and gold wheels has the title of the ultimate boy-racer. On the other hand, Porsche brand snobs look down on he base Cayman as just a wannabe 911. In reality, they are both pretty fantastic performance cars. But what would happen if the two of them lined up at a stoplight, and maybe the guy in the suit in the Cayman started throwing some revs at the young man in the STI? Automobile decided to find out in a recent video pitting the two stereotyped hot rods against each other in a standing-mile drag race.
In terms of raw numbers, they are surprisingly close. Both use flat engines and six-speed manual transmissions here, but the Subaru has more power and torque. However, the Porsche makes up for it with 300 pounds less weight. Neither should have a problem with traction either thanks to the STI's sophisticated all-wheel-drive setup, and the Cayman's mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout.
The comparable specs certainly show themselves in the real world for the race. We're not going to give away the winner here because it's too exciting, but let's just say the finish is very, very close. Scroll down to watch both of them shrug off their stereotypes and show off their real performance.
Porsche 911 celebrates 50 years of iconic motoring
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Back in 1963, Porsche debuted the very first 911 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. And over the last 50 years, that coupe has grown to become one of the most iconic sports cars of all time. That in mind, you could easily chalk up this 50th Anniversary model as just one of the many special edition 911s that have graced our roads over the years, but dig a bit deeper and you'll see that this one is far more than just some unique paint and different wheels.
For starters, the 911 50th Anniversary Edition utilizes the wider Carrera 4/4S body, but retains its standard rear-wheel-drive configuration. Power comes from the Carrera S' 3.8-liter flat-six engine, but features a Powerkit upgrade that includes the Sport Chrono package and ups overall output to 400 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque. Hitting 60 miles per hour takes just 3.8 seconds if the car is fitted with Porsche's dual-clutch PDK gearbox, or 4.2 seconds if you choose the row-your-own seven-speed manual. Talk about going Over The Hill with a quickness.
Despite looking pretty tame, we're really hot on the appearance of this special 911, with its throwback flat gray paint job and new 20-inch wheels that look remarkably similar to the original Fuchs alloys of the 1963 model. Inside, you'll find green lettering on the instrument displays, white pointer needles and silver accents, and the leather seats have a fabric insert that's similar to the Pepita cloth from the original 911.
