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.

Horn, Hackenburg, Hatz to be fired as VW diesel scandal deepens

Thu, Sep 24 2015

Volkswagen will sack three more high ranking executives, including the head of its US division, as the company's diesel scandal deepens. Reuters reported Thursday morning that the executives are: Michael Horn, who has led VW's US operations since January 1, 2014; Ulrich Hackenberg, who oversaw Audi's research and development; and Wolfgang Hatz, who was in charge of R&D for Porsche. A VW spokesman wouldn't comment in response to an Autoblog email. The moves come in the wake of longtime VW chief executive Martin Winterkorn stepping down on Wednesday. Volkswagen's board said at the time that it expected more personnel changes to follow. Volkswagen's board is scheduled to meet Friday, and Porsche CEO Matthias Muller has reportedly been named as Winterkorn's successor. The German auto giant was plunged into crisis last Friday when the EPA charged that the company manipulated software in its diesel-powered cars to pass US emissions tests. About 482,000 vehicles in the US are affected, and VW estimates 11 million around the world could have the rigged software. The revelations have prompted outcry from governments and regulatory agencies, and in the US, Volkswagen could face a fine of up to $18 billion. The departure of Horn, Hackenberg, and Hatz is a stunning downfall for three of the company's top and most visible executives. Horn had led US operations for less than two years, taking over from Jonathan Browning, who was well-respected but failed to reach VW's ambitious sales targets. Before overseeing Audi R&D, Hackenberg was hailed as a visionary for work in developing VW's modular architectures, which allow the company to save time and money by building many vehicles off the same chassis. Hatz had led Porsche R&D since 2011 and also was in charge of engines and transmission development for all of Volkswagen.

Driving 50 years of Porsche 911 history

Fri, 06 Sep 2013

Raiding The Porsche Museum For A Fun Track Day
It seems everyone is celebrating anniversaries this year: it's Aston's hundredth, Lamborghini's fiftieth, Ford Mustang's fiftieth, Chevy Corvette's sixtieth - and Tesla just turned ten or something. It's been a little out of hand, frankly, all these forced marketing festivities, but if we had to pick one milestone to really celebrate hard and party all night, the Porsche 911 would be at the top of our list.
Get ready for a major 911 blowout bash at next week's Frankfurt Motor Show. It was on September 12 back in 1963 at this very show where Porsche unveiled its "901" painted in a rather boring shade of beige. Though drably finished, the car caused a worldwide frenzy in the budding German sports car sphere.

Car and Driver 10Best list cracked by Tesla Model S, BMW 3 Series left off

Fri, Nov 21 2014

Car and Driver is keeping new blood pumping into its annual 10Best cars list with three new entries making it on for 2015 and a perennial favorite falling off. Among the biggest shocks this year is that the BMW 3 Series and 4 Series are no longer named, despite years of some portion of that lineup earning a mention. In another surprise, the Tesla Model S (specifically in S 60 trim to fit under the $80,000 cost cap) makes it to the 2015 roster and is the only electrically motivated member of the group. Despite the loss of the 3 Series, BMW isn't entirely shut out this year, because the M235i gets its name on the list. Car and Driver argues that the little coupe feels like a welcome throwback to the E46 chassis M3 of the early 2000s. In addition to the Model S, the final newbie to the annual group is the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. The inclusion of these new members knocks the Audi A6/A7 family and Ford Fiesta ST out from the 2014 rundown. The other seven models carry over from last year, including the Cadillac CTS, Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, Honda Accord, Mazda3, Mazda6, Porsche Boxster/Cayman and Volkswagen Golf/GTI. The 2015 10Best cars list certainly seems to have something for everyone from the hot hatch fan to the family man and even the green car driver, thanks to the addition of the Tesla. Head over to Car and Driver to read its detailed explanations for each vehicle's inclusion, but if you've got a difference of opinion or just really like the list, let us know in Comments.
