This is a rare combination.  A pristine, lovingly cared for Boxster, and a private seller who is not greedy.   This is a 2- owner, 13k mile, SoCal car with manuals and all service records since new.   It has never been in the elements.   Undercarriage is clean enough to eat from.   Garage kept, and parked on 'flatstoppers' to keep the tires in proper condition.  

The first owner ran a VW dealership and worshipped this car, as have I.    I defy you to find a better one in the United States.    It is insured as a classic with appraised value of $25k.    The reserve price is lower than book value on KBB.com.   There is no premium for it being the best one on eBay (or anywhere else for that matter).   I have 4 cars and am thinning the herd.   Clear title in- hand.    Please bid to own, not to negotiate. 

This Boxster is a silver/ black 5-speed manual with a flawless silver factory hardtop ($3,000 option if you can find one).   The car is bone stock original with no modifications or molestations.  It is fitted with 18' gorgeous high- end factory alloys ($2,500) and brand new Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires ($1,200.)    It looks and drives as new.   Factory audio including amp and single CD player.   Two custom fitted car covers included (indoor and outdoor).   No accidents or paintwork, of course.    

Needs nothing except one service item: The airbag light is illuminated, apparantly due to an electrical fault in the seatbelt connection, a very common issue with these cars.  (Google: Boxster airbag light).   At winning bidder's direction, I will either A) Credit you $500. off the final auction price, or B) I will have it serviced and collect the final auction price.   Your choice.   This car is perfect, I regret the distraction.  

Nice cars to me are an admitted vice.  I've owned this one 3 years and have put on 2,000 miles.   Please see my feedback and bid with confidence.   Happy to assist with shipping or storage logistics.   Thank you for your interest.

Porsche reveals new 911 Turbo Cabriolets, starting from $160,700*

Mon, 23 Sep 2013

Porsche has come a long way from the days when its entire model line revolved essentially around the 911, but its prototypical rear-engined sports car is still what it's known for best, and still keeps the German automaker pretty busy. With a seemingly endless array of variations on the theme, the 911s just keep on coming until a new generation arrives and then it starts all over again. And what we have here is the new king of the hill (for now, anyway).
Set to debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show a little less than two months from now are the new Porsche 911 Turbo Cabriolets. And no, that's not a typo: that's cabriolets, plural, because what you're looking at are two new models. First up is the 911 Turbo Cabriolet, whose 3.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six develops 520 horsepower, driving the droptop to 60 miles per hour in 3.3 seconds. That's Porsche's claim, and we have a feeling it's a bit conservative. But if that's still not enough, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet adds an extra 40 hp for a total of 560 to drop the benchmark acceleration run down to 3.1 seconds.
That makes the new topless Turbos 30 horses stronger and 0.2 seconds quicker than the respective models they replace, but the weight penalty involved with replacing a fixed roof with a folding one (and the necessary structural reinforcement) does make the new 911 Turbo Cabs a smidgen more lethargic than their contemporary coupe counterparts, which run the gauntlet in 3.2 and 2.9 seconds in standard Turbo and upgraded Turbo S specs, respectively. They only lose a single tick on the top speed, though, which clocks in at a follicle-tickling 195 mph in either spec. Otherwise the specifications are as identical as you might expect.

Rimac inks deal to purchase 55% of Bugatti from VW Group

Mon, Jul 5 2021

ZAGREB, Croatia — Croatian electric supercar builder Rimac is taking over the iconic French manufacturer Bugatti in a deal that is reported to be worth millions of euros. Rimac said GermanyÂ’s Volkswagen Group, including the Porsche division — which owns a majority stake in Bugatti — plans to create a new joint venture. The new company will be called Bugatti-Rimac. Rimac Automobili announced Monday that it will be combining forces with Bugatti to “create a new automotive and technological powerhouse.” Rimac has progressed in 10 years from a one-man garage startup to a successful company that produces electric supercars. Mate Rimac, who founded the company in 2009, says the venture is an “exciting moment” and calls the combination of the companies “a perfect match for each other.” Porsche will own 45% of Bugatti-Rimac while Rimac Automobili will hold the remaining 55% stake, according to Croatian media reports. Financial details of the deal were not published. Bugattis will continue to be assembled in eastern France, where the company was established in 1909. The vehicles will use engines developed and made in Croatia. “In an industry evolving at ever-increasing speed, flexibility, innovation and sustainability remain at the very core of RimacÂ’s operations," the company said. “Uniting RimacÂ’s technical expertise and lean operations with BugattiÂ’s 110-year heritage of design and engineering prowess represents a fusion of leading automotive minds."

Porsche 911 GTS Targa spied at the 'Ring | Autoblog Minute

Mon, May 16 2016

Spy shots of a lightly camouflaged 911 GTS Targa at the Nurburgring have us musing about what we might get from this upcoming Porsche. Eddie Sabatini reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Spy shots of a lightly camouflaged 911 GTS Targa have us musing about what we might get from this upcoming Porsche. The photos were grabbed at the Nurburgring and show a different exhaust system than is on the current car. Like the updated 991 Carrera and Carrera S, this GTS will get a 3-liter turbocharged engine in place of the current 3.8-liter naturally aspirated six-cylinder. And we expect it will make more than the 430 horsepower of the pre-facelift GTS engine. The shots also show off center-locking wheels, [00:00:30] which are likely to make production, and a blacked-out Targa roof bar. We'll have to wait and see if the dark roof bar is camo or an actual production option. The GTS should again be available with two or four-wheel drive and in coupe, convertible, and Targa body styles. For Autoblog I'm Eddie Sabatini.
