1999 Porsche Boxster 5spd
Blue with gray interior

Details:

I bought this car then end up buying a 911 right afterwards and decided to keep the 911. Car appears to be very well taken care of and is very clean with NO rust or corrosion. Runs and drives nicely. Shift smoothly through all the gears with NO grinding. Clutch feels strong. Does not smoke or leak. Convertible top is in great shape and appears nearly new. The back plastic window is very clear with no cracking or signs of age. The top goes up and down smoothly and the windows work nicely. The body is very straight with NO major damage. There is no significant chipping or cracking in the paint and the only damage I can really find is one dime sized chip on the front bumper and another similar sized chip on the rear bumper. The interior is in equally good shape. The leather is clean with no rips or tears. There is a very small amount of wear on the drivers bolster, but much less than you would expect for its age and miles. All the power options seem to work fine. The a/c blows cold. There is also a $600 Kenwood touchscreen DVD player that folds out of the dash. Tires are Pirelli P-zero tires that have about 50% tread left. The rims are clean with minimal curb rash. The alignment is spot on and I would feel comfortable taking the car on a long road trip.

History:

I purchased the car in California and the car still has the California Salvage title from Liberty Mutual. From what I can tell the car looks like they hit a curb putting a small (8 inch dent) into the bottom of the front trunk pan. In the front of the car where the spare tire is stored, the bottom of the trunk is very low to the ground and that is where the dent was. I stood on the dent and it popped right out. This damage did not affect the alignment (I did not have the car aligned and the alignment is still spot on) or any other part of the car. The damage cannot be seen unless you are under the car and does not affect the functionality or usability of the car in any way. The accident also seemed to set off the airbag light, so the airbag light is on. I do not have the tools to pull the codes, so I do not know why it is on, but non of the airbags deployed and the seatbelts still function. My guess is that is the real reason the car was totaled was because the insurance company figured on needing to replace all the airbags due to the light being on. This car can be driven as it is with absolutely no work whatsoever needing to be done.

Flaws:

Aside from the salvage title there are a couple of small flaws with the car. Like every other Boxster in existence the center console door is broken. The drivers door panel storage bin lid is also broken. The driver's a/c vent has a couple broken fins. There is a small 1 inch X 2 inch piece of trim at the front of the tonneau cover on the driver's side that is missing. The keyless entry remote does not work (most likely just needs to be reset). The convertible top warning light is on even when the top is secured (faulty sensor that is pretty common on these cars). Finally the airbag light is on most likely due to the accident.

Terms:

Buyer is responsible for getting the car to their location. I will help where I can. I need a $500 deposit via Paypal within 48 hours of the close of the auction with the remainder due in one week via cash or cashiers check. Car is sold as is where is.

J.D. Power: Vehicle dependability at all-time high, Lexus and Porsche lead

Wed, 13 Feb 2013

Each year, J.D. Power and Associates surveys original owners of three-year-old vehicles to find out what kinds of problems they have had experienced over the last 12 months, and then it uses this data to create its annual Vehicle Dependability Study. This means that the models in the 2013 study are 2010 model year vehicles, and J.D. Power rates each make as well as the top individual models based on how many problems were experienced per 100 vehicles (PP100).
Debunking the idea that carryover models are more dependable than new or updated models, the 2013 study found that the average carryover model experienced 133 PP100, while all-new or redesigned vehicles for the 2010 model year had 116 PP100; vehicles that received minor changes fared the best with just 111 PP100. The overall average for all makes was 126 PP100, which is the lowest figure since the findings were first issued in 1989.

Porsche Cayman GT4 looks sexy, rapid in the nude

Mon, Jan 5 2015

Porsche doesn't officially have a name for its more hardcore version of the Cayman, yet. The speculation is that the coupe is called the GT4 as a little brother to the 911 GT3. However, the German sports car maker apparently is not interested in keeping the model's looks much of a secret because these latest shots show it without a hint of camouflage to speak of. The GT4 reportedly takes the GT3's ethos of more power, less weight and stickier-than-glue handling and brings it all to the Cayman. As these photos show, there's a much lower air dam up front with a cooling vent at the tip of the hood. Larger wheels are another obvious addition and are likely shod with some very sticky rubber. At the back, there's a double spoiler combining a wing and a ducktail. The power and gearbox for the GT4 remains a mystery, though. The rumor is that it uses a tuned version of the 3.4-liter flat-six in the Cayman S and GTS to make between 370 and 400 horsepower. A similar overhaul of the Boxster might be on the way, as well. A version of the convertible wearing some of the Cayman GT4's goodies was recently spotted testing. That one even had a manual transmission to make the prospects behind the wheel even more exciting.
