**SOLD**
Silver 2001 Boxster Base
152,000mi
Original engine
Original transmission
911 Wheels
Purchased the car with 148,000mi in January of 2015 to have some fun with it. It was a Craigslist car that turned out to be a pretty decent ride despite the mileage. In my care it received the following (in no particular order):
New A5 top with plastic window
New Bilstein shocks (with new shock mounts, bearing plates, etc.)
New rear track arms (NO RATTLES!!)
New water pump
Major service (plugs, belt, all filters, oil change, brake flush, coolant flush)
Factory short shifter
New tires
New motor mount
Secondary air injection pump
New key head (coded all functions)
New passenger door lock assembly
New leather seats
New brakes (front and rear pads and rotors)
New axle boots and fresh CV grease
New trunk lid shocks
Like-new, crystal clear, OEM headlights with new front refelctors (car not equipped with headlight squirters)
Two good, used primary catalytic converters
New tail light boards
New LR wheel bearing
Driver and passenger mirror glass (exterior)
New Lloyd's floor mats
The car has proven to be a fantastic commuter and highway companion. Everything works (wipers, seat heaters, HVAC, lights, roof, etc.) and the 2.7L engine is still running strong at 150,000+ miles. The car is still running the original IMS bearing and no material has been found in the filter during the 4 oil changes it's received in my care. There is no reason to believe that the IMS is in danger of failing and I have 100% faith in the car's continued good service. I spoke with a fellow shop owner yesterday and he said his 2.7L Boxster went 250,000+ miles on its original IMS bearing and the motor looked NEW when he took it apart out of sheer curiosity.
In addition to the above replacement parts I also disassembled and cleaned the HVAC control unit, repaired the drink holders, installed a Porsche Classic navigation radio (first edition), repaired the driver's door pocket, replaced the ash tray, and installed factory BOSE speakers in the dash and doors.
The car has some minor cosmetic issues (scuffs, dings, chips, etc) which is to be expected from a 15 year old car with this type of mileage. But it starts every time and runs like a champ. It's currently registered and gets used every week for a day or two. I will provide a current smog certificate if purchased by a CA resident.
Asking price is **SOLD**.
Photos to follow later today.
Price is negotiable and a quick, easy sale is preferred. I'm happy to answer any and all questions about the car. Feel free to email me at TLG_Porsche@yahoo.com or PM me through the board.
