meet the owner of a nice 986 S

Today I met a gentleman (Dereck) a Veteran, that had this beautiful seal grey '02 986S w/52k for about 6 months.



I invited him to join the 986Forum, hopefully he does as he will have to learn to maintain his car (at least the basics) because he is planning to keep it for a while.

And since this car is an '02 (single row bearing), I recommended him to read all about the IMS to plan ahead, this car is definitely worth the investment for the piece of mind.

Thanks for sharing! But that ain't Seal Gray.

It sure does look good with the 18" Carrera wheels, too. Wonder what kind of mask that is as I haven't seen one like that before.

No matter, it's still sweet. I too like the bra.

My old 02 Boxster S. She was perfect. Miss the Artic Silver. Moved up to a 3.4 Boxster since.

Never thought of a contrasting hard top...I like the look of yours. I would also like to get one for my '02 Meridian Metallic but they are hard to find in that colour.

To be honest, I'm not sure of the hardtop colour. I do get a lot of comments on it though!
