Selling my 1999 Porsche Boxster.

Passed smog, stickered for 2014.

Located in Palm Springs, California 92262.

• Air conditioning works
• Non-smoking
• Anti-theft protection + Viper Alarm
• Audio system, original speakers, sound good
• Delayed/fade courtesy lights

• Key power locks (driver door’s lock needs to be fixed, will not unlock. Viper alarm keyless entry equipped, works, remote is chipped)
• Front power windows with two one-touch
• Four speakers
• Tachometer

Its' odometer now reads around 180,200 miles.

The car runs and drives but the car's transmission slipps into neutral during sharp accelerations/decelerations and will need to be looked at. Possibly a link. Will run a durametrics test to pinpoint issue and report shortly.

The original/current color of the car is Porsche's Arena Red Metallic. It needs new paint.

The car's title lists the car as "Salvage". I was told by the former owner the salvage was due to theft which left a cut in the roof [still evident, but fixed with a black silicone or epoxy.]

- original Porsche key which is missing its porsche emblem
- plus a new key programmed and made for the car

- Motor mount may need replaced (pelicanparts.com for tutorial)
- Turn signal does not automatically disengage
- Convertible top opens manual only, includes new parts.
- Inner headlight lenses are burnt

Shows white smoke after sitting, possible oil leak- dip stick is clean.  AOS, replaced it about 2 years ago- same symptoms.

All Fluids checked and filled last month. 

Shows usual wear for age.

Tires are good, about a year old.

MIL light is on, I can read the code and reset it as I have an OBDII Code reader as well as the Durametics diagnostic cord. I can sell separately if wanted.

I also have the Bentley manual for the 1999 Porsche Boxster (this car), which shows how to do pretty much anything, what type of oil, specs, etc. I will include with the car at no additional cost ($80 book).

CAR SOLD AS IS, where is. Buyer must pick up in person with cash in hand.

Ken Block's Gymkhana 8 to feature Dubai Police cars?

Tue, Feb 23 2016

Yesterday we showed you the shiny Ford Fiesta that Ken Block will slide, spin, and hoon through the next Gymkhana video. In case the image above isn't clear, that video will drop at midnight EST on February 30th on the Ford Performance YouTube channel. We don't know all the entire premise of the video yet, but this Tweet from the man himself reveals that the video will be set in Dubai. Block is standing on the Fiesta we saw yesterday, and arrayed behind him are a handful of those famous Dubai Police cars you're probably familiar with. The force has a fleet of sportscars and supercars, and the purpose is outreach and goodwill among its citizenry, not necessarily the pursuit of criminals. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. From left to right, we can see a Maserati GranTurismo, Porsche 911, what looks to be a Nissan GT-R obscured by Block's Fiesta, a McLaren (likely a 650S), Ford Mustang, and a Ferrari 599 of some ilk. Will they take part? Maybe Block will try and run from what might be the most horsepower-intensive police fleet in the world. We'll have answers (and a few minutes of pure Block hooniganism) in a few days. Related Video:

Porsche celebrates 50 years of 911 with some excellent pics

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

The Porsche 911 is one of the most iconic sports cars of all time, and to celebrate the car's first 50 years, Porsche has released a stunning set of photos showing how far the 911 has come from the original back in 1963 to its current 991 generation. Unlike the recent 60-year photo spread that Chevrolet put together for the Corvette, though, Porsche's gallery only shows the original 911 and the current car.
Each time the 911 is redesigned, the car's front fenders, roofline and the shape of the side windows are key focal points. Even some of the interior cues have remained the same over the years, including the positioning of the ignition key on the left of the steering column and the five-gauge instrument cluster layout.
Scroll down for Porsche's press release breaking down the seven generations of the 911, and be sure to check out our gallery with plenty of high-res pics for you to download as a desktop wallpaper. In fact, we're providing these at 1920-pixels-wide instead of our usual 1280 wide. Enjoy!

Porsche becomes first company to rent out Vatican's Sistine Chapel

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

We wouldn't go so far as to say God is a Porsche fan, but those in charge of one of the holiest Christian spots on our little blue marble are welcoming the German automaker into one of the religion's most revered and beautiful settings - the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City. In so doing, Porsche will reportedly become the first company to rent out the holy hall for a corporate function.
Now, it's not like Pope Francis has signed off on Porsche doing do donuts in a 911 underneath Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam. Instead, the Vatican has rented out the home of the Papal Conclave to the Porsche Travel Club, which will host a classical music concert. The Travel Club organizes events and tours across Europe for Porsche enthusiasts, with the Vatican concert just one part of a tour of Rome.
According to Automotive News Europe, Porsche will sell 40 tickets - at 5,000 euros each ($6,379) - to the event, while the Vatican has confirmed that the Pope will not be in attendance.
