Hope the O.P. is reading this because it is a real-world perspective on Boxster values
Here are examples in San's area:
2001 Porsche Boxster
maybe this?
2006 beautiful Porsche Boxster
2001 PORSCHE BOXTER'''5 SPEED MANUAL TRASMISION'''ONLY 75000 MILES'''
And remember ,these are asking prices.
Makes you think twice about expensive repairs?

So...here's the update. I took it to the authorized Porsche collision center here in Tucson. The guy working on it, apparently, has 30 years of bodywork experience, so that's great, IMO! I was very impressed to see where they're at so far. It doesn't look near as bad and even in this rough state, the gaps and door line up perfectly. So far, so good!

Please don't mock me for how dull the colored caps on the wheels look...I'll polish them when I get it back!

I knew it could be pulled out. Just need to find the right old guy that has the patience, mad skills and awesome tool box. I can't tell you how happy this makes me.

Adult beverages all around....

I am glad hat you were able to find the right person, as proper body work is an art that sadly seems to be disappearing.
