Selling my 1999 Porsche Boxster. This car has a rare hardtop (worth $2,000) that pops off and has a functional soft top underneath. Perfect for someone who owns cats and is worried they'll damage the top but still wants a convertible (that's why I bought it). Car has a few scratches and dings that are typical of a car this age. Passenger door only unlocks from the inside and the radio is missing the turning nobs but is still fully functional. Otherwise, the car's exterior and interior are in good condition for its age. Car has Automatic Transmission with Tiptronic. Mileage on it is 101,800. Car runs and drives fine, but some repairs are needed (see below). Reserve price set low to accommodate for repairs. Has a CD player, a brand new battery, an ice cold A/C, and includes original owners manual. Spoiler pops up at 60mph or can be brought up with controls inside the vehicle.
Here is a list of mechanical repairs I know this car needs.:
Spark plug tube seals (minor oil leak at seals)
Both CV axle boots (torn and need to be replaced)
Trans. shaft seals (minor trans. leak at seals)
Car is drivable in current condition, and interested parties are more than welcome to come give it a test drive (by appointment only). I asked the Porsche dealership if they thought it would make it from Texas to New Mexico and back without the repairs (since I was planning a trip), and they said yes.
Please feel free to call if you have any questions. My number is (210) 415-9377. My name is Marla.

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.
Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

Porsche testing new 911 GTS
Wed, 28 May 2014Porsche may have one more vehicle in its stable with the GTS moniker, if these spy shots are any indication. They show off the presumed 911 GTS lapping the track - the model meant to slide in under the GT3 to be a bit more driver-friendly but still very fast alternative to a stock Carrera.
At first glance, it might look like any other 911, but the devil is in the details. The most obvious among the differences are two centrally mounted exhaust outlets, rather than the ones closer to the corners on most of the current models. They also aren't perfectly in the center like the GT3. The taillights are also somewhat thicker than the current ones, and the rear decklid is split into three exposed sections.
This is the third time we've seen the presumed GTS. The first was as a coupe late last year. Then it showed up again in March testing in convertible form. Although, that version also sported fender vents at the rear.
