Well, let me be the first to welcome you! It looks like you've found a really well preserved car. You can't go wrong with triple black!
You've been a lurker, so I'm sure you know that the forum is a great place, full of knowledge, advice and a sprinkling of drama.
I hope you love your car!

Congratulations,
Your Porsche is in great shape!
I too have been searching for a long time and just recently purchased a 2000 986. It is also triple black with a 5 speed. It has the sports package, the 17 " wheels, 21k miles and runs like the day it came off the show room floor. I am very happy!
I really like the wheels on your Boxster. Which ones are they? Did they come with the car or did you upgrade them?
Anyway, I hope you are having as much fun as I am!

Thanks for some nice replies
The wheels came on the car. The car has 44,000 miles...about 5000 miles a year..not abused. I have all of the service records along with all manuals, original sticker and even re-seller sticker ( was sold in late 2003 for $35,983)
I found one heck of a deal. My daughters boyfriend just came home for summer and when he asked me how much I paid for it, he just about freaked out as he paid more for his used Honda SUV than i paid for my Boxster! I told him for a college student he made a great choice, can't beat a Honda for a daily driver. I don't think I would buy a Porsche as a daily driver...this is a weekend "toy" for me. we have 3 other cars, one of them being my wifes Mercedes SLK..so know we have 2 toys
