Great condition 2002 PORSCHE BOXSTER S with only 62,660 miles.

I am NOT A DEALER, and this car WAS NOT BOUGHT AT AUCTION.  This is my toy - my garage queen to be exact as it was only used in nice weather and garaged when not driven.  I have spared no expense in servicing the car and doing all recommended steps to insure it operates at the highest level of performance. This car is super clean (I'm third owner), kept in the garage and have invested over $10,000 in preventative & regular service maintenance.  I'm so protective of the car that the gas tank is always full to avoid condensation in the tank. The Boxster is perfect if you're looking to buy a car from a person who took care of it like they were going to keep it forever.....then this is the car as until today as I intended on keeping it forever.

I'm selling the car after 4 great years of enjoyment because my children are now wanting to drive with me and two seats just aren't enough, so changing to a 911 Cabriolet (If I can find one with a IMS retrofit so the engine does not seize - see IMS Problem on Porsche Boxster/911 below)


The Porsche is accident free with a clean Carfax and comes 
in a very desirable color combination Seal Grey Metallic exterior, Grey interior and matching Grey Convertible Top.  The paint looks great aside from normal wear.  Please note pics denoting any scratches.

The interior is in excellent condition with very minor signs of wear and is a smoke free car.  All parts, components and options(Power Windows, AC, Cruise, etc, etc. is all in working order without issue)

The soft top is in great shape and has only very minimal signs of wear.  The rear window was replaced in 2010.

The Boxster S has no known mechanical issues and everything works as it should.

18'' stock wheels are in great condition and tires were installed at $56,000 miles(only 6K miles of wear)

Have all service records from my purchase date in 2010 to today, including the receipt for IMS Retrofit for the engine - to avoid and insure against IMS Failure.  I loved the Boxster S and made the $5,000 investment to have the IMS Retrofit Kit installed by a certified Porsche service center(Body Motion in Ocean NJ) to avoid any problems as I was going to keep this car forever.....(until my kids changed everything)

In addition to above - I've changed many parts that are part of the normal wear of the vehicle and also completed the 60,000 mile service including tune up, timing belt, etc.    

Car is paid for and title is in hand.  Be sure to ask this when speaking to other sellers, as when I was looking to buy in 2010, I was amazed at how many people did not have their Titles.(Was held by bank, leasing company, former spouse, etc.) Protect yourself.


IMS Failures - 1997-2008 Boxsters & 911 - Regardless of where you buy your Boxster - do your homework and protect yourself.  When I started looking for a used Boxster S in 2010 I noticed "Private Sellers" discussing IMS Problems and solutions.  I Googled "IMS Problems Porsche Boxster" and found an alarming problem- if left unresolved, the IMS issue occurring in these engines will turn your beautiful Porsche into a $20,000+ paperweight in your garage.  Google for yourself or I can email you links to IMS issues and solutions.

UK Porsche GT3 owners are irked that other countries are getting better deals

Sun, 27 Apr 2014

Porsche 911 GT3 owners in the United Kingdom are up in arms, but it's not for the reason you might think. Okay, well it sort of is. See, it's been fairly well documented that 911 GT3 owners have had their cars grounded over concerns that the engines could catch fire. Porsche is rushing to build and install replacement engines in all 800 or so cars, scattered around the globe.
This isn't really the issue. The problem for these British owners is compensation. While the car's have been grounded, car notes still need to be paid. To deal with this, American GT3 owners are being paid $2,000 per month. German owners get 175 euros ($242 at today's rates) per day while a GT3 owner in Dubai is allegedly receiving $12,000 (it's unclear if this is a lump sum or a monthly payment). Basically, if you aren't able to drive your six-figure super car, you shouldn't have to pay for it. Seems reasonable regardless of the make.
British owners, though, aren't being compensated, and for 30 to 35 owners, that's not acceptable. They've banded together and are led by Sunil Mehra.

Are you the Porsche Pajun?

Mon, 17 Nov 2014

The prospect of Porsche building a smaller version of the Panamera has been an on-again, off-again proposition as the German automaker seems to go back and forth on the project. Last we heard, Porsche had pushed back the so-called Pajun (shorthand for Panamera Junior) until 2019 at the earliest, but we could be looking at it right here.
The automaker's everything-but-automotive division Porsche Design is working on a luxury condo complex called (simply enough) Porsche Design Tower. It's been three years in the making and will take at least another year or two to complete, but the gist of it is that the 57-floor building will include 132 apartments, each with its own en-suite garage in which the residents' cars will be parked thanks to giant elevators.
Porsche Design released a series of renderings showing what the property will look like once complete. Most of the renderings feature Porsches, of course - production models you can find in any of the brand's showrooms, like the one just 23 miles away in Coral Gables. But one of the renderings of the giant glass elevators shows something rather unusual.

Porsche, Jaguar continue dominance in 2015 JD Power APEAL study

Wed, Jul 22 2015

The top of JD Power's 2015 APEAL Study has not changed much in the last year. Porsche remains No. 1 with Jaguar nipping at its heels, although both premium brands saw their overall score fall compared to 2014. For those that need a refresher, the APEAL Study looks at how "gratifying" a vehicle is to own and drive, rating cars and brands on a 1,000-point scale. The industry average for 2015 has increased from 794 to 798, while the total number of automakers that finished above the curve increased from 16 to 20. While Porsche and Jaguar finished at the top, their scores dropped eight and seven points, respectively, to 874 and 855. The top "non-premium" brand was Mini, which scored an impressive 825, up from 795. If the BMW-owned British marque is still a bit too premium for your tastes, last year's non-premium winner, Hyundai, did climb five points and is this year's runner up. At the opposite end of the scale, Smart sits at the very bottom of the rankings, with a score of 683 (it didn't appear on the 2014 rankings). Fiat also dropped, from fourth worst in 2014 to second worst in 2015, despite the 500 being named most appealing city car. Subaru made an impressive climb, from third worst to seventh, falling just 10 points shy of the industry average and two points south of the non-premium average. In the individual vehicle segments, eight brands earned multiple awards, with Ford, Chevrolet, and Porsche earning three apiece. Surprise segment victories included the new Ford Expedition, which beat out Chevy's popular Suburban. The Infiniti QX80 bested the likes of the Cadillac Escalade and Range Rover for best large luxury SUV, and the Dodge Challenger beat its muscle car rivals from Ford and Chevy. Most of the victories, though, were quite predictable. The Mazda6 and CX-5 took wins for the midsize sedan and compact SUV categories respectively, while the Volkswagen Golf captured the compact car win. The Ford F-150 won the large pickup category, while the Porsche Cayman was named most appealing compact premium sporty car.
