OK , This is not fun ..
this Boxster S was very presentable and all original ... too original
Tires old - expected that
Battery was bad - knew that ... But Alternator was NG
CEL - didn't see that - misfires - needs tubes & tuneup
didn't get to issues that I thought were there - catalytic converter etc
Got a quote from Porsche dealer for Alternator - $2480 !! wtf can't be ? asked him at least twice - $2480 even if I found a shop to do it for half it's crazy
never mind how much they wanted for tubes & tune up !
