They've divorced the engine/trans, so it sits stinkbug now.

All the weight is gone from the back.
Are those seats anything good, or just cheap poser racing seats?

Many regular readers have heard of many a "Boxter" advertised for sale, but seeing a "Boxester" was a new one for me...

It also has four cylinders, maybe a 718 prototype?

Looks like they made sure to advertise it includes the rare "tachometer" option. I'm green envy.

Rare Porsche Boxster with the European Package;
Porsche Boxster European Package
I believe One of only Two in the U.S. 97 Porsche Boxster with the European Package. This car is sweet. 5 spd, telescope wheel, cruise, P/W, P/L, P/S, cold A/C, auto/manuel rear spoiler, 19" turbo carrera wheels, almost new tires, etc, etc. I just spent $11,000.00 on the engine with documented 42,766 miles and includes a 12 mos./12,000 mile parts and labor warranty, new clutch, new exhaust, and much much more. This car has a factory removable hard top. It is in excellent condition physically and mechanically. I have all receipts and records.
Over $25,000.00 invested. Must Sell $14,900.00. Please call Ed @ show contact info Thank you for your consideration.

I think that's a nice looking 986. Decent mods and a lower mile engine replacement. It is still a 1997 with 130,000 miles on it ...$14,900? I'm sorry that he spent over $25,000 on it, but perhaps that was just incidental to the seller.
What is the European Package? -ROW model? I'm pretty sure that all that body kit stuff is just aftermarket.

If you have ever been hit in the rear, you appreciate the bumperettes. Get then painted body/bumper color and they fade into the background.

I've had a valet in NYC back my Boxster into a concrete garage wall right as I was watching him. Minor mark on my painted bumperette, but glad I had them for sure. The new Boxsters don't have bumperettes anymore though.

To be fair it's somewhat tasteful and at least has a hardtop! Still too high of a price, I've never understood why everyone modifies the slowest boxsters to begin with. If you're going to invest so much money into the car to make it look the way you want, why not start of with the fastest car to begin with.

Very Rare Green Shade
Not CL, but eBay and not Boxster related. However, as the owner of a 1966 912, I have to wonder, what anyone would do w/this scrap heap.

Is that a Ferrari Daytona or 400 in the background? Oh, the horror!
