Ok, no problem. It is a 2001 Porsche Boxster S. 6 manual with just under 75,000 miles - silver with black interior. It has been in my family since 2012, I bought it then when I was stationed in Germany. When I bought it, it had over 40,000. I had it inspected by Porsche and have records of the inspection but they are all in German. This is a US Spec car that was brought over from the states from a serviceman. I retired from the military and moved back to PA in 2014 - 2 years later, I passed it to my dad when he retired. He always wanted it, loved it. Last summer, he passed away and I took it back. I am selling this and my 2010 Lotus Evora because I put down a deposit for the new Lotus Emira. Even if I wasn't buying a new car, one of these has to go because it is becoming more of choir to run these cars weekly/bi-weekly (i sound like a whiner).

Last year when I got it back, I replaced the spark plugs and tubes and put on a new radiator cap (it was leaking, this was the fix). I also replaced the expansion tank and water pump a few years back. Oil has been changed every year when PA inspection was due, I did this last week. Personally, if I was to keep it, I would change the top, the back window was replaced in 2012 by my wife sewing it in and it is due for another replacement - it would just go for a whole new top. Original clutch with nothing done to the IMS, clutch still holds strong - my dad drove it like an 80 yr old grandma.

I know this car inside and out since I spent the last decade with it. I can provide photos, please PM me your email address and I can walk out to the garage and do close ups of whatever and the VIN, I also have no problem FaceTiming and walking around the vehicle.
