1999 Porsche Boxster 986 Ocean Blue Metallic / Savanna Biege - 5 Speed Manual with only 96k.
Offered for sale is an extra clean California Boxster in beautiful shape with zero accidents or stories. This life long California car was only imported to Minnesota by myself six months ago and passed a complete mechanical inspection by IPB Autosport at that time. With several key service items just performed (listed below), this Boxster will give you long time enjoyment with no worries of expensive maintenance moving forward. Unexpected purchase of a third Porsche forces sale or I'd enjoy this beauty for many years to come; I looked at many Boxsters to find a nice, well maintained example. RECENT MAJOR SERVICE & REPAIRS (Just Performed): • Clutch • Air/Oil Separator (AOS) • Convertible Top Rear Window • Motor Mounts • Headlight Lenses • Four Wheel Alignment • A/C Serviced and Recharged • Drive Belt • Front Sway Bar Links • New Bosch Battery (850cca) • Fresh Mobil 1 Oil & Filter • New Leather Shift Boot • Coolant Expansion Tank @ 75k WHAT'S INCLUDED: • Factory hardtop complete with rolling stand and dust cover • Two sets of wheels to choose from: Original Boxster Design 17" Twists and 16" M395 Five Spoke with Pirelli Winter Sport Snow Tires. Both included with "buy now".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cq4EQvvR1lw• Two factory keys, Original Owners Manual, Window Sticker, and Service History dating back to 1999. • Three sets of floor mats: Brand new set of OEM Factory Savanna Biege mats, Brand new Lloyds all season mats, and the original set that came with the car. • CD-ROM with Supporting Documentation FACTORY OPTIONS: • Heated Seats • On Board Computer • Sports Package • All Leather Seats (Savanna Beige) • Colored Crest Wheel Caps • Hi-Fi Sound pkg • Illuminated Vanity Mirrors Overall Condition: PAINT: Gorgeous Ocean Blue Metallic paint has a deep rich showroom new shine. It was hard to capture in photographs just how stunning the car looks. The nose has some minor stone chips from freeway driving and there are a few faint scratches found under careful scrutiny (too faint to be photographed), but overall, the paint is very nice. Hardtop has a 1" scratch on the driver's side. No rust. INTERIOR: Very clean Savanna Biege interior. Rare factory heated seats that work well. Non-smoker. No fading on trim pieces. Driver's seat shows minor wear from use, but no rips or tears in the leather. E-brake plastic cover has a crack in it. Armrest needs new hinges (common and easy fix). Overall, the interior retains a very "like new" look. DRIVING IMPRESSIONS: Motor is very healthy pulling strong through the entire rev range. Silky smooth both hot/cold with no unusual noises. Car tracks straight down the road and does not pull while braking. Steering is razor sharp and the car still feels "tight". Runs cool and never overheats. Nice crisp clutch engagement one of the best feeling gearboxes I've felt in an early Boxster. No warning lights illuminated on the dash and the air conditioning blows cold. Overall, the car drives just as nice as cars with half the mileage. The 2.5L flat six in these early Boxster's sounds absolutely amazing, a very mechanical sound reminiscent of the old air-cooled 911's, with a spine tingling exhaust note on full throttle. MAINTENANCE: Included will be service history from the previous owner (2003-2013) and the factory maintenance booklet with all appropriate dealership service stamps from the original owner (1999-2003). This Boxster has been lovingly maintained and enthusiast owned for it's entire life, and it shows. The 2.5 motor has the vastly superior dual-row IMS bearing and was not plagued with catastrophic failures like the newer models from 2000 on-wards. Have clean Carfax on hand. CONVERTIBLE TOP: The Metropol Blue convertible top nicely accents the Ocean Blue Metallic paint. It's in good condition but shows minor wear from use. Functions flawlessly with no holes or major blemishes. Rubber trim is in good condition. New rear window just sewn in before my purchase. Included is the "red clip" which activates the interior motion sensor if you wish to leave the car unattended with the top down. ACCESSORIES/PRICE: While I highly recommend the hardtop as a must have accessory for the Boxster, I understand it's not for everyone, thus I am willing to sell the vehicle without the hardtop for a discounted price. I have two sets of wheels for the vehicle: The original Boxster Design 17" Twists, and factory 16" M395 Five Spokes mounted with Pirelli Winter Sport Snow Tires (both pictured on the vehicle). Buyer can pick which wheels come with the vehicle or I will include both sets for an agreed price. I will include everything if the "Buy Now" option is used. ABOUT ME: As a PCA member, I have owned Porsche's for more than a decade and am a huge enthusiast of the marque. I understand how apprehensive buying a car sight unseen can be, and as a result I'm willing to work with potential buyers 100% by being available to answer questions via phone or email, take additional photographs, and to help arrange a PPI or shipping. I've tried to include photos of the vehicle in a variety of photographs with different lighting and backgrounds for the most accurate representation of how the car looks. I bought this car sight unseen from California in June of 2013 and it exceeded my expectations. Really wish I could keep it. Vehicle is sold as-is, where-is, with no warranty expressed or implied. Buyer is responsible for shipping and vehicle will not be released until funds have 100% cleared my bank. I am happy to assist potential buyers however possible in this endeavor. $500.00 PayPal Deposite required within 24 hours of auction close. Full payment via cash, certified check, or wire transfer required within 7 days of auction close. Vehicle is offered for sale locally thus I reserve the right to end this listing early. |

2014 Porsche 911 GT3 and GT3 Cup step out early
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Though Porsche won't be feeding us the full 911 enchilada until tomorrow's Geneva-based festivities, we have managed to scare up some official images of the 2014 911 GT3, as well as the all-new 911 GT3 Cup. As Porsche is celebrating 50 years of the 911, we anticipate a good day for great cars.
The new GT3 looks every bit the proper successor to the racy 911 nameplate, with a fixed rear wing large enough to serve cocktails on, a curvaceous body kit and 20-inch wheels that offer a dominating on-road stance. It's a good bet that Porsche will have coaxed something like 450 horsepower from the naturally aspirated, 3.8-liter flat-six engine that hangs over the car's rear axle. A seven-speed manual and Porsche's own PDK transmission are the likely gearbox offerings.
Should the mental quickness and imposing wingery of the standard GT3 not be enough for you, future racecar driver, Porsche is also bringing a GT3 Cup car to Geneva. The German automaker has given just a few scant details about this Cup car - 460 hp on tap, a production run of just 2,400 units - including three images of the kitted out racer. Certainly more and finer details will emerge, when Porsche shines the spotlights on its new 911s tomorrow.
Best luxury SUVs of 2022 and 2023
Mon, Sep 12 2022Once upon a time, the idea of a luxury SUV meant a Range Rover, and even that was pretty agricultural by modern standards. Then Jeep Grand Cherokees and Ford Explorers started offering fancy, range-topping versions followed soon by Lexus, BMW and Mercedes dipping their toes in the water. And then the floodgates opened. Today, there is a staggering number of luxury SUVs available in every shape, size and price point. There are electric luxury SUVs like the Tesla Model X and Jaguar I-Pace, as well as gas-swilling, high-performance SUVs like the BMW X5 M and Cadillac Escalade V. Sports car makers Porsche, Aston Martin and Lamborghini have even dived in. But of this great many, which are the best luxury SUVs? We sat down, scoured our reviews, took some votes, had some discussions and came up with the luxury SUVs we view as the best. They are listed alphabetically within the six segments listed below. Best Subcompact Luxury SUV  |  Best Compact Luxury SUV  |  Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Two-Row) Best Midsize Luxury SUV (Three-Row)  |  Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Two-Row)  |  Best Flagship Luxury SUV (Three-Row) Best subcompact luxury SUVs Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class Why it stands out: Outstanding space and versatility; legit luxury interior; amusing GLB 35 versionCould be better: Overwhelming and confusing tech interface Most subcompact luxury SUVs are a dubious value, with cramped interiors of marginal quality and unrefined driving dynamics. You'd be much better off paying less money for a loaded, non-luxury compact SUV. The Mercedes GLB is different, though. Its boxy design provides space few other subcompact SUV can match (luxury or otherwise), while its cabin design and feature content are in keeping with pricier Mercedes models. The quality's not exactly up to GLC standards, nor is driving refinement, but the difference is appropriate for how much you're saving and still perfectly acceptable. There's nothing dubious about buying a GLB.   Volvo XC40 Why it stands out: More features for the money; spacious and versatile interior; distinctive design; electric versionCould be better: Fuel-efficient base engine only available with FWD Most subcompact luxury models feel a bit like cheap knockoffs of their bigger, pricier brand mates. The XC40, by contrast, is a break from the Volvo norm in a good way.
