I like the 97 you're considering and the '01 for $13,900.
I do really like yours but it would be a long drive home but it would be fun I like the fact that you have the GAHH roof and the red Brembo calipers already done which is something I would do as well.

Ask John99 about the PO. And the care he provided. Also, I thought my car was clean until I saw John's. I was afraid to touch it !!!!! I would buy Johns car before I bought from a stranger or a "Stealership" that threw away all records like they do.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is PO? I probably would jump on John's car in a heartbeat if I was closer. I was talking to another guy at a Porsche garage today and I mentioned John's car and he knew what I was talking about immediately. I just don't have the time right now to go out and see it and then if I bought it, I would need 3 days to drive it back. It is a gorgeous car though and I'm going to keep it in mind.

Like this: 2002 Porsche Boxster Convertible Low Miles REDUCED

Good luck!
I e-mailed the one you linked to today for more info, no reply so far. Also, asked for more info on this one, another 2002, but kind of high on the miles.
