Well it's hard to estimate a price without more details, such as the year. But here goes my best guess...

The early standard 986 is going cheap now, as low at $8,000 for high mileage examples. $13,000 for more reasonable cars. I think the 2000+ Boxster S is more in the $18,000 to $20,000 range. Let's say though that an extremely low mileage Boxster S would go for $22,000. Again, this really depends on the year though, as you can add a couple thousand for each year newer than 2000 your car is. Throw in a 340 HP 3.6L (I assume this car started as a Boxster S) and I think you could add anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000 to that price. It depends on how "complete" the package was that Roock put together. Do you have suspension work as well as the wheels, exhaust, and engine? Brake work? Interior upgrades? I think this car could easily be worth $30,000 especially considering the low mileage.

This car is a well optioned 02 S . I believe it has the full Roock Package except interior parts. It has H&R coil over setup Not shure of the brakes , does not look like 6 piston all around but the rotors look larger than standard S brakes.

This car was owned by a wealthy man who also owns multiple exotic cars. He bought the car brand new in 02 and the conversion was also done in 02. I like this car alot I still think this car could easily use more power than the 3.6 has.

We had spoken to Roock quite some time ago about our upgrades to 'beef-up' the M96 and nothing ever came out of it, so I'm sure the drive-train is bone stock. Like most tuners, it's body kits and bolt ons.

No offense meant Charles but if you even bothered to read the first post.... it has a 3.6 in it. That is not stock for a boxster. Now if youve had problems with Roock or you do not like them for whatever reason this this thread wasnt started by Jacabean for shortsighted opinions.

Yeah. Charles gave the politically correct version of what I would have said.

You'll never see a Flat 6 component associated with Roock.

Jacabean,

I know who's the previous owner of your new boxster and all of the history that goes along with it. Let me know if you want the details.
