Fake S? - 986 Forum - The Community for Porsche Boxster & Cayman Owners

First offer from insurance before any negotiation was 10.5k... however all the comparable cars they had ready were sold, we have sent them 8k worth of recent service and ad ons as well as more comparable boxsters.

I am still interested in the blue car as it is more affordable, but what are peoples opinions on this car Cars for Sale: 2000 Porsche Boxster S in Matthews, NC 28105: Convertible Details - 370203530 - AutoTrader.com

Funny thing is, i actually bought my last boxster from Matthews as well. I will have to have good luck with insurance to be able to afford this boxster but i think it is much cleaner and better than the blue car. The owner has already sent me the car fax with a nice full service history and the waterpump is already replaced.

Jake, this is right by me. Let me know if you want me to pop by and take a look at anything for you before you make the drive. If you do come this way and end up buying, maybe we could meet up.

Thank you, i will keep that in mind if the car turns out to be within our price range.

but I have to admit for at least this part of the country, that seems to be a very fair offer...maybe even generous for a first offer for a 2.5 car with that kind of mileage. It is going to be hard IMO to get them to see the value of the service records and such. 2.5's seem to sell for 6-9k around the DFW area all the time.

Oh at the least i will be able to upgrade to a 2.7 or get a 99 with considerably less miles, but we do highly value our glass convertible top with us living in an area where its not too cold to enjoy top down driving but it is too cold for the top to be operated if its plastic.
