2000 Porsche Boxster fixer upper with a low reserve!
89,000 miles
Tiptronic transmission
Silver with New Blue convertible top
I have my 2000 Porsche Boxster for sale that needs some work and I am no longer in a financial position to fix her. This would be a great project for someone that has the know how about these cars. Recently the car has started to make a loud noise from the rear of the vehicle when the car is decelerating only. As soon as you give any gas the noise goes away. It was brought to our Family mechanic and after putting it on the rack he said it was nothing related to the motor but was possibly an issue with the transmission or rear end of the vehicle and he would not know for sure until it was taken apart. Unfortunately I can not afford to put any money into the car at this time and have decided I will have to sell it and buy another cheaper vehicle. The car DOES run and drive!
Besides the mechanical issues their are a few other small issues
1) Stereo does not turn on, I am going to assume it is a fuse as it worked one day and not the next.
2) the passenger side window regulator is either broken of the window is off the track. You can hear the motor working but the window does not move.
3) the automatic gear shift knob button is missing. This is how I got the car and never worried about it
4) The passenger side seat has a tear on the top bolster (as seen in the pictures)
5) as a very known boxster problem the plastic interior pieces have the factory paint scratched off of it in areas. I was in the process of having this fixed before the mechanical issue arose but have since stopped. This is a very easy fix by repainting or covering with carbon fiber overlays.
6) the front and rear bumper on the vehicle would need to be repainted to be perfect. There is some rock chips and missing paint in a few areas on the front. The back is in much better shape but i was going to have repainted at the same time as the rest of the body is flawless without a dent on it!
Good items on the vehicle!
1) the mechanic said the motor was very strong and had no issues
2) the AC blows ICE cold
3) Their was a new convertible top put on within the past year and works flawlessly
4) Tires have plenty of tread left and would not need to be replaced for a while
5) besides the bumpers the body is in excellent condition!
I have the title in hand and am a motivated seller. The reserve is set at half of the book value of the vehicle in fair condition! Buy it now, fix it and still have time to enjoy a great convertible for the summer!

Recharge Wrap-up: BMW to test autonomous cars, Korea bans sales of BMW, Nissan, Porsche models
Thu, Jan 5 2017BMW will test autonomous cars on public roads by the second half of 2017. The German automaker, with partners Mobileye and Intel, will operate a fleet of 40 self-driving vehicles using a "scalable architecture" that will be made available to other automakers. The partners plan to offer products ranging from key components to "a complete end-to-end solution" for autonomous driving. Since parting ways with Tesla, Mobileye also recently announced it would provide its technology to Lucid Motors. For BMW, it all leads up to its fully autonomous iNext model slated for introduction in 2021. See the video above, and read more in the press release from Intel. South Korea has banned the sale of certain models from BMW, Nissan, and Porsche over emissions cheating. Following an investigation, regulators determined emissions testing documents to be falsified. The country's Ministry of Environment has fined the three automakers a total of $5.9 million, and revoked the certification of 4,523 vehicles across banned 10 models. Six of the models were still on sale, while the other four have been discontinued. Read more from Automotive News Europe. China's prices for the Cadillac CT6 Plug-in are significantly higher than those announced for the US. The plug-in hybrid version of the luxury sedan recently went on sale with the two variants priced at RMB 558,800 and RMB 658,800. At the time of this writing, that's $80,420 and $94,812. Cadillac announced it would bring the CT6 Plug-In Í– which is built in China – to the US in the spring of 2017, starting at $76,090 before federal and local tax incentives. Hybrid Cars points out that China's own generous incentives could help to make it more competitive. The offering of a charger with free installation as well as an eight-year warranty on the electric powertrain should help, too. Read more at Hybrid Cars. A Connecticut court has ruled in favor of Tesla's gallery showroom in Greenwich. Last May, the Connecticut Automotive Retailers Association brought the suit to block the showroom on Greenwich Avenue, which has now been dismissed by the Connecticut Superior Court. Tesla cannot offer test drives, sell cars, or operate a Supercharger at the location, but it can sell other branded items and educate the public about its vehicles. It's possible that the issue of Tesla's direct sales model could come up again this year in Connecticut state legislature. Read more at Teslarati .
eBay Find of the Day: 1981 Porsche 928 convertible by Carelli
Wed, 30 Apr 2014The Porsche 928 was perhaps the consummate European GT of its day. With a powerful front-mounted V8 engine that grew in displacement as the model years went on, it was capable of eating up the miles at triple-digit speeds in great comfort for occupants. It was also an unusual beauty, with its sharp front and curved rear featuring innovative integrated bumpers.
Currently for auction on eBay Motors is one of the rarest 928s you're likely to find, in a handsome combination of Guards Red paint and tan leather interior, though we wouldn't mind a less-showy finish to the factory wheels. According to the seller, this car is one of eight 928 convertibles by Carelli Design, a firm that's still in business.
The auction claims that these cars were made in 1981 as a feasibility study between Carelli and Porsche for a possible production 928 convertible. The seller says he worked at the dealership where the car is said to have been originally sold $103,000. To remove the roof and hide the convertible top, there were significant changes made to the body and interior, including redesigned doors and a completely new trunk. As you can see in the gallery, when down, the top is completely hidden in a very factory-like fashion. When up, it looks slightly awkward, though (and we'd really like to see a rear three-quarter view to check out the blind spots).
A closer look at the 2015 Porsche Macan
Wed, 27 Nov 2013
He assured us that "this is a sports car."
Porsche took the wraps off its all-new 2015 Macan at the LA Auto Show last week, and while it's easy to write it off as just a badge-engineered version of the Audi Q5, you'd be very, very wrong. For starters, 75 percent of the car's platform was re-engineered by the Porsche team, and with a choice of two twin-turbocharged engines, the Macan should absolutely live up to the brand's pedigree.
