1st Post - Potential Buyer - Should I?
I had a 914 many, many years ago, and a 911S coupe. Have always loved the brand. Been studying the info available on the later Porsches.
Trying to talk wifey into a box, trade her '01 325Ci convertible for one. We bought the 'vert as a CPO five years ago, now has 86K and have maintained it to flawless condition. Maybe trade it off.
Local exotic dealer has a '04 Boxster with 22K and tip for just under $20K. Car is flawless. Should we trade??? Have not driven it yet, afraid I might like it too much.
We used to need a back seat, but our teenaged son is 6' now so can't ride in the back any more anyway so she may as well get a 2-seater. I get to drive on the weekend. We have two other cars.
Waddaya think??
My reservations:
IMS prone to failure anytime, could install the update bearings.
RMS leak
Expensive maint, but I have yet to find anything I couldn't tackle. Would do my own maint.
