2002 Porsche Boxster Roadster S Convertible 2-door 3.2l on 2040-cars
Lincroft, New Jersey, United States
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 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. Please call with any questions - Walter 908-461-1125 |

Roger Rodas' widow suing Porsche over Carrera GT crash
Tue, 13 May 2014
Investigations undertaken by local law enforcement may have vindicated Porsche from any wrongdoing in the crash that killed actor Paul Walker and racing driver Roger Rodas last year, but the latter's widow is apparently not convinced. According to emerging reports, Kristine Rodas has filed a lawsuit seeking unspecified damages from Porsche Cars North America.
In her suit filed with the Los Angeles Superior Court, Rodas' attorney Mark Geragos reportedly disputes the findings of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, which asserted that the vehicle was traveling at an unsafe speed of 90 miles per hour on city streets, identifying the speed as the cause of the accident. Instead the lawsuit claims that the vehicle was only going 55 mph and that the cause of the crash was improper equipment - namely a faulty right rear suspension and the lack of a crash cage and proper fuel tank.
Studiotorino shows new Cayman-based Moncenisio sports car
Mon, 24 Mar 2014While the recent bankruptcy of Bertone shows that it has become very difficult to be a coachbuilder today, it seems there is still a business case in creating unique bodies for premium vehicles. Case in point, Studiotorino a small, Italian coachbuilder that has been creating limited-edition cars since 2005. Its latest creation is the Moncenisio, which debuted as a prototype at the National Automobile Museum of Turin on March 21. It's named after the 1902 Susa-Moncenisio race in Italy, the first automotive hillclimb in the world.
The Moncenisio begins life as Porsche Cayman S, and each car will be built to order with a planned production run of 19 examples. The chassis, mechanicals and engine are all left untouched. The only thing that Studiotorino alters are the body panels and interior appointments. Prices start at at a heady 145,000 euros ($200,420 US), plus the cost of the donor vehicle.
Architect Daniele Gaglione penned the shape of the Moncenisio, taking inspiration from the 1963 Porsche 904. The sports coupes receive carbon fiber pieces that replace the front bumper, side panels and rear bumper. Studiotorino also covers the rear side windows with welded metal panels. The design is still clearly a Cayman, especially from the front, but the extended roof and support pillars create a new look from behind, which features a new exhaust treatment and rear spoiler. The interior receives leather upholstery on the engine compartment cover, the partition between the engine and seats, ceiling and A-pillars.

McQueen's Porsche 917 from Le Mans races to the auction block
Mon, 23 Jun 2014Steve McQueen may have been the headline actor of the motorsport cult classic film Le Mans, but we all know who the real star was. Or rather, what: the Porsche 917. More specifically, it was the Gulf-liveried #22 - not McQueen's #21 - that won the race, making it one of the most iconic cars ever to drive across the silver screen. And now it's going up for auction.
This 1969 Porsche 917K, chassis 917-024, has a storied history both on and off the screen, even if it didn't win any (off-screen) races of note. This example was the first 917 to be campaigned in an actual race when Porsche handed it to Jo Siffert to drive against the Ferrari 312P and Ford GT40 at the Spa-Francorchamps 1000 Km race in 1969. Siffert found the early example too unstable and ultimately drove an earlier 908 to the checkered flag, but after 917-024 set the fastest time at the following year's Le Mans test day, Siffert acquired it outright.
The Swiss racing driver loaned the car to Solar Productions for use in the film, after which it returned to Siffert's collection until he was killed in an F1 exposition race at Brands Hatch in 1971. In a testament to how much he loved the car, it was 917-024 that lead the funeral procession. The car subsequently fell off the radar until it resurfaced in 2001 as one of the greatest barn finds of the new millennium. Now fully restored and resplendent in its original baby blue and orange, 917-024 is headed to the auction block at Pebble Beach where you can be sure that Gooding & Company will bring in a suitably high price for arguably the most iconic example of one of the most iconic Porsches of all time.
