New to the Porsche World

Hey everyone, I've been looking for some time and finally found a 1998 Porsche Boxster and I'm in love with it ...... I do have five kids and yes I do own a minivan but kids are getting older to the point where mom and dad aren't cool enough anymore, so I convinced the wife and now I'm the proud owner of a beautiful sports car!!!

Congrats

If you've been lurking here for any time at all, you know the rule, "If there ain't no pictures, it didn't happen." Happy motoring!

We need pictures. Even though most of us have our own we still like looking at others!

Welcome Aboard neighbour !
Congratulations on a well deserved reward for yourself..
You are indeed in the right place for your Boxster. If there's anything you would like to know or share feel free to ask.
Though my Toy is now in hibernation, i still think of it everyday !
Happy Boxstering.

Are you sure that's a 98?

People put the newer tail lights on older cars but I've never see the wider rear spoiler on a 2.5 car.

Beautiful car regardless!

I was thinking the same thing. If it's a 1998, It's had a big face-lift from an 03-04. Both bumpers, top with glass window, spoiler, headlights and tails. It looks great for a '98.
One recommendation to go along with the other cosmetics: Get the clear side markers. About $50 USD

Looks just like my 03. The rims are not the ones I have but the rest of the car looks just like my base. I suspect there must be a mistake somewhere
