2000 Porsche Boxster (2.7L, 5 speed manual)
Clean Title
139k miles
Arena Red
Original 2000-issue (4LLW) CA license plate
Given the mileage and condition of this car, it is fair to say this is a DRIVER'S CAR. This is not an immaculate creampuff that can be shown on a concours lawn, this is a mechanically solid car that's ready to drive anywhere. I just got back from a 900 mile road trip and it performed flawlessly with exactly zero issues.
I have an inch-thick folder of receipts going back to 2006. The previous owners were not shy about getting every issue fixed, mostly at Sonnen Porsche, Stevens Creek Porsche, and Flintworks. The major points in the maintenance history are:
2007: Clutch replaced
2008: Water Pump replaced
2010: RMS replaced; LN IMS bearing installed; Transmission replaced with 31k mile 5 speed; CV boots replaced; cam cover resealed; new engine mount; front brake hoses replaced; sway bar end links replaced
2012: RSS rear toe links installed
Since I have owned the car, I have done:
-987 Boxster shift box (huge improvement in shift quality!)
-New Window Regulators (both)
-New Battery
-Flushed coolant
-Flushed brake fluid
-Wiper Blades (twice)
-Replaced fuel sending unit
-All filters replaced (air, oil [twice], fuel, cabin)
-New OEM Porsche floor mats
-Alignment
This car is extremely well optioned, and I have the original window sticker. The breakdown of the options is as follows:

The only issues with this car are cosmetic. Here is the list of minuses:
-Minor dings on left side of car from previous owner's apartment parking garage
-Small dent on hardtop (no damage to paint)
-Scrapes underneath front bumper
-Scrapes on lower right side of car
-Minor scratch on rear bumper
-Sap on top of car
-Paint in overall great shape, could use a buff to get rid of minor swirls in clear coat
-Duct tape residue on center console
-Rear plastic window is yellow (doesn't bother me as I've only put the soft top up one time)
This car always starts right up, runs and idles perfectly, and VarioCam kicks in (yo). I drive this car like a Porsche should be driven; I let it warm up for 10-15 miles before getting on it, and then make sure to give it a full throttle run to redline at least once every time I drive it. I'm very particular about gasoline and have never put anything into it besides Shell, Chevron, or 76.
I'm asking
$8000. Price is OBO, but I will only accept offers after you've seen and driven the car. First you decide you want it, then we'll decide how much it's worth
Most recent photos, unedited/straight from phone:
Here's the "Full Leather" interior. Note the leather dash covering instead of the 'basketball' material. Also note the Porsche Exclusive aluminum gauges, shift knob, and handbrake lever.
Full Leather door panels, which are more complex in design, better looking, and better feeling than the standard ones:
Both trunks are fully intact. Has original spare tire plus cover. I even have an extra container of OEM Porsche wiper fluid.
