5spd Manual

Please feel free to ask any questions you may have!

Title/ownership:

This porsche has a salvage Maryland title from some very minor damage that was done to the rear deck lid, tonneau cover, and taillight (See before pictures). I believe a tree branch fell on it during one of the summer storms we had here in VA. I have since replaced the rear deck lid, tonneau cover and taillight and the car looks as good as new (see current pictures). There was no structural or hidden damage done to the car. The new pieces match perfectly and since the replacement pieces were silver as well, the undersides are silver, so it looks like the car never had any damage. I have the original window sticker and bill of sale for the car and it looks to have been a one owner Boxster sold from Heishmans Porsche in Arlington Va and has stayed in Alexandria VA its whole life with maintenance being done at Porsche of Arlington.

Condition:

The body is very clean with no significant dings or dents that I can see. The front bumper has a couple marks on the lower valance (see picture), but otherwise there is really no major imperfections to report. The engine has great miles at 58k and starts right up with no smoke or leaking. Clutch feels strong and the transmission shifts smoothly. The interior is pretty clean with a little sun damage especially on the steering wheel, but with no tears or rips on the leather seats or carpeting. The top looks almost new with a clear back window. The sun visors still have their mirror doors and the center console hinge is NOT broken, both very common problems in these Porsches. Rims are 17" with no significant curb rash and the tires have more than 50% tread life on them. The keyless entry works great and there are three keys (two with remotes and one valet). There are no warning lights and everything on the car works. I'm certain the car could be driven across country without issue. It has a current VA inspection sticker on the windshield. Its just a solid little car.

Options:

The car has all the standard options as well as Traction control, Cruise control, and the dash computer. These options are pretty rare on the 986 Boxster and especially the traction control comes in handy on wet or snowy roads. Having three working keys is also pretty rare.

Terms:

The car is sold as is where is with no warrantee express or implied. The car is sold with a Maryland Salvage title. I require a $500 deposit within 48 hours of the close of the auction with the remaining funds due within one week. The buyer will receive a Bill of Sale, title, mileage notification form, and salvage title notification form. The car is located in Alexandria VA and is sold through a Utah dealership. Any additional paperwork needed for the buyers state will be provided.

Updated J.D. Power APEAL study shines on VW Group, Chevy

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

J.D. Power has just revealed the results of its 2013 APEAL Study, which looks at which brands have the most appealing cars based on sales figures, dealer inventory, brand loyalty, transaction and trade-in prices. The study was revamped for 2013, and places a larger focus on the new tech and infotainment options available to customers. All told, study participants gauged their vehicles on 77 different attributes, delivering a score out of a 1,000 points.
The Volkswagen Group had the greatest success of any corporation, topping the APEAL rankings with the Audi Allroad, Porsche Boxster, Porsche Cayenne, VW GTI and Passat. Chevrolet had the highest number of awards for a single brand, though, with the Avalanche, Sonic and Volt all taking home a prize.
The best brand overall was Porsche, which scored 884 out of a possible 1,000 points. The top Japanese brand was Lexus with a score of 847, while the top American brand was Cadillac, at 841. The best mainstream brand was Ram, which received a very respectable 817. The industry average for this year's study was 795, with 16 brands, all of which were mainstream, falling below the average.

2014 Porsche Panamera arrives with new E-Hybrid, long-wheelbase models

Wed, 03 Apr 2013

Porsche will officially unveil the refreshed 2014 Panamera at the Shanghai Motor Show later this month, and there's a whole lot in store for the updated model, far beyond the minimal styling tweaks you see here. Sure, there's a new fascia with more prominent LED lighting (including full LED headlamps) and the rump has been tweaked ever so slightly, but the big news for 2014 concerns what's underneath that rakish skin.
First up, Porsche will now offer a Panamera S E-Hybrid model - a plug-in hybrid that builds on the technology first introduced in the Panamera S Hybrid that we tested in 2011. For this new application, a more powerful electric motor and higher-performance battery have been fitted (official specs have not been released just yet), and Porsche says the battery can be recharged in just two and a half hours when the car is plugged in to a 240-volt outlet, and the charging (as well as other vehicle data) can be monitored via a new Porsche Car Connect app available for Android and iOS devices.
The E-Hybrid will have an all-electric driving range of "greater than 20 miles" and will be able to travel at speeds up to 84 miles per hour solely on electric power.

Porsche announces four flavors of updated Cayenne [w/video]

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

The new Macan may be getting all the attention lately, but Porsche hasn't forgotten about its larger crossover - the one that put it on the map in 2002 and on the road to profitability, with over half a million sold so far. So to keep the Cayenne at the top of its game, Porsche has announced several key upgrades for the 2015 model.
For starters, Porsche has updated the Cayenne's appearance with new front- and rear-end styling. The front bumper, fenders and hood are entirely new, with air fins flanking the nose to direct air into the intercoolers (each model now being artificially aspirated), and new bi-xenon headlamps and daytime running LEDs on every model but the Turbo, which goes all-LED. Around back there's also new taillights, tailgate handle, lower rear fascia and exhaust pipes. Meanwhile the interior has been upgraded with a 918-derived sport steering wheel and reformed rear seats with available ventilation.
The bigger news is under the engine bay, where Porsche is offering four choices. The base model is gone as the range starts with the Cayenne Diesel, followed by the Cayenne S, the new Cayenne S E-Hybrid and the top-of-the-line Cayenne Turbo. The Diesel model carries over the same 3.0-liter turbo diesel with 240 horsepower. The Cayenne S however packs a 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6 that's similar to the one found in the Macan Turbo and packs the same 406 lb-ft of torque but more power at 420 hp, 20 more than either its little brother or the model it replaces to reach 62 mph in 5.2 seconds.
