			If you look around you can find quite a few 'S' models on Craigslist that aren't quite an S. I suppose if you stick enough S's on it an uneducated buyer won't know any better. 
Here's a 1999 Boxster S. Looks like an S, maybe they got the year wrong:
1999 Porsche Boxster S Pristine Conditions! Very Low Miles!   
Here's a 02 Boxter S "sport edition". The Sport edition S comes with a 5-speed (and 2.7).   02 Porsche Boxter S sport edition convertible   |

			I was offered $5,000 for my stove!
 But, he then said he wanted a check for $3,000 back and I could keep the change. Wrong check sent to me with my name on it.

I love to F with scammers. When they come at me with that scam, I tell them that was the agreed upon price. I must have been put on the scammers "no scam list" because I never get any attempts anymore. I kind of miss them.

Let me know if anyone wants me to look at it.  But that doesn't look like OMA in the pic and there's no phone # to contact.  Looks good in the pics...

I forgot to check the vin. I guess the new question is, why does it have a 4 spoke?

I've seen other S models with 4 spoke wheels.  Must have been the standard in the early years.

			Hopefully I'm not breaking the rules here as this is not a Porsche. But it's got the right colors! 
Yes I know it's not CL but thought it was cool enough to share anyway
