1999 Porsche Boxster
117103 Miles, 5spd manual, removable hardtop.

About The Car:

This is a 1999 Porsche Boxster blue with brown interior with blue convertible top and removable hardtop.  Car has 117103 miles and runs well.  Does NOT smoke or leak.  There are NO warning lights on. Everything works.  Power windows, door locks, cruise, keyless entry, rear window defrost in the hardtop, and traction control which is pretty uncommon in this year Boxster.  The car has a salvage Oregon title from a damaged  front bumper that has since been repaired and repainted.  The repainted front bumper matches well to the rest of the car.    There was no frame damage or any other damage to the car.  Even the foam piece under the bumper survived in tact.   Can be driven anywhere and will be a reliable nice car for someone.    

The Good:

New Brakes all around with functional brake wear sensors.
18" Boxster S rims in very good condition with almost NO marks, curb rash, ect. 
$1500 removable hardtop with built in rear window defrost.
Strong clutch, feels good.
No warning lights turned on
Cold A/C
Both front and rear trunk lids have good struts that hold them open as they should (typical problem on these cars that they won't stay open) 
Complete with owners manual, original spare, jack, tools, locking lug nuts with key.
Power everything including traction control, which helps in the snow or rain.
Functional keyless entry with one key.  

Flaws:

The passenger seat is torn and doesn't look very good.  The drivers door has 3 small 2" or less dents (see pic).  There is also two reverse dime sized dings in the rear trunk lid and one in the front trunk lid from someone placing something in the trunk. (see pic) There is also a small scratch on the hood and hardtop (see pics). Otherwise the body is very straight and the paint in good shape.  The back light on the digital speedometer is out which makes is not very bright (see pic).  The rear plastic window in the convertible top is cracked.  I do have a used black top with good rear window that I would be willing to get installed for and additional $200.    The rear tires will need to be replaced soon.  The fronts are in great shape.  

Terms:

This car is sold in Colorado as is where is with no warrantee expressed or implied.  Car is sold through a Utah dealer and residents of the State of Utah will have to pay sales tax.  All others will not.  I will gladly help do what I can to help ship the car.  I need a $500 deposit via Paypal within  48 hours of the close of the auction, with the remainder due in one week unless other arrangements are made.   I will be available to show the car for inspections on Saturday and Sunday this week.  Please contact me if you want to look at the car or make an offer.

Porsche 911 RSR in bizarre, terrifying rally crash

Sun, 22 Sep 2013

As far as rally crashes go, this one is pretty terrifying. At this month's Hellendoorn Rally, Harry Kleinjan failed to negotiate a turn and drove his Porsche 911 RSR straight into a Jersey barrier, flipping the car into the river.
While it's unclear what caused the accident, German Car Scene notes, "We can see his brakes locking up ahead of the impact, which also ripped both driver's side wheels off, so it may be a case of ill-judged late braking, locking brakes or a jammed throttle." Us? We're betting it might have been bad pace notes. Fortunately for Harry and his co-driver, all indications are that no one was hurt. Check out the videos below to see the spectacular crash for yourself.

Remembering Porsche's illustrious Le Mans history

Fri, 13 Jun 2014

Not only does this weekend mark the running of the 82nd 24 Hours of Le Mans, it will also see the return of one of the race's most venerable brands to the top tiers of endurance racing. Porsche will campaign its first top-flight car since the 1998 911 GT1-98, the 919 Hybrid, at this weekend's race, in the hopes of knocking off its corporate rival, the dominant Audi team.
To understand just what a win for the 919 would mean, though, you need to look back on the intrinsic connection between the Circuit de la Sarthe and Porsche. It's a history that spans decades, dating back to the team's first win in 1970.
XCar has a great video on that history. At 25 minutes, it's a bit on the long side. Then again it is the Friday before Le Mans. Take a look below for the video.

Porsche 911 R might be manual-only with a GT3 engine

Thu, Oct 15 2015

Two of Porsche's best cars only come with two pedals and a PDK transmission. That automatic is inarguably one of the very best on the planet, but it's still not the same. The debut of the latest Porsche 911 GT3 was met with much moaning and groaning when it was revealed it would be PDK-only. A rumor from our friends at Car and Driver could signal that three-pedal fans may finally get the Porsche they really want. C/D is claiming that Porsche might resurrect the 911 R badge for a limited-edition Carrera. Such a vehicle would feature not only a nearly 500-horsepower, naturally aspirated flat-six derived from the GT3's engine, but also a do-it-yourself manual transmission. We're betting it'd be the Carrera's well-regarded seven-speed manual, provided it could handle the output. As for how this car will look, that is perhaps the most exciting angle. According to C/D, Porsche insiders called the 911 R "a wolf in sheep's clothing," describing subdued sheetmetal that won't trumpet this car's high-performance nature. Yes, there's could be a sleeper 911. We'll keep our eyes open for anything that corroborates Car and Driver's rumor, but until then, take this news with a grain of salt. If the 911 R does see the light of day, it will likely be in March at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show.
