An 'S' for the weekend!

Well I spoke with a friend who owns an '03 Boxster S. He and his wife just purchased a brand new S with PDK and put his for sale. After driving around in our '98 base today we thought we'd give our friend a call and see if he would like to sell us his car. He told me he'd leave the car with us for the weekend and we could decide then.

(Anyone interested in a '98 base? )

Sounds like someone is trying to tell you something...

As long as the S has been taken care of and didn't have crazy high mileage, I'd go for it and ditch the 98 base.

I have a 98 base and love my car. Ed

Have your friend post it here, others may be interested.
I for one would take a look.

Since I know the seller I know how he has taken care of the car. FWIW, he takes it to the Porsche dealer he bought it from for everything. I prefer to do my own maintenance, chose my own oils, and OCI, but at least I know this car hasn't been neglected. BTW it has 60k miles while my base has 48k.

Urban Legend, I will if I'm not interested.

And I like our '98 base as well, no complaints at all, but why not upgrade to an S if possible?

I'm probably going to buy it this weekend...

Just wish it was Artic Silver.

as some like the 5 speed gear ratios better than the 6 speeds. And on the 201HP you can keep your foot down longer and stronger than in the S.

Inspect the CV joint boots as they are a weak link on the S models due to more stress from the angle of the half shafts.

Had a '99 (totaled) and now have a '01S. I think the fun factor was the same.
