Purchased my 2001 Lapis Blue 5spd. Boxster back in May with approx. 120,000 miles and since then have been slowly bringing her back to life. Clutch died on the way home from the lot where she was purchased with just about 5km to go (knew it was on it’s last legs, just thought I could make it)! Had her towed home and then to the shop.
New LN IMS (inspected the old one and no sign of any issues), Clutch, Dual Mass FlyWheel, Bosch Battery, Pirelli Tires, Ignition, Coil Packs, Plugs and various cosmetic parts (roll bar inserts, wind deflector, rear clear lights) courtesy of fellow 986forum members have brought her up to her current condition.
Coming from a MR2 Spyder (with a 4 year gap in-between to account for the little ones), I can say that I’m truly impressed and proud to be a 986 owner. Echoing similar sentiments from other members new to Porsche… what an unbelievable vehicle that really deserves to be driven as much as you can, especially at over 4000rpm…
Looking forward to being part of the community!
