That's what they told me, that they usually just wholesale older Boxsters out. This one they kept.
They took detailed pics for me and the only blemish is 3 tiny nicks in the paint on the drivers side fender just above the wheel well. They said they used to just fix stuff like that but nowadays people put a paint depth scanner on it or see it was fixed then they think it was in an accident so they just leave it alone.
Its there but very minor.
They gave the print out of the cars service history and besides an ignition switch problem several years ago, its been trouble free.
They seem pretty upfront and honest, Ive asked several direct and point blank questions which they answered. Theyre a car dealership, Im sure if I don't ask they might not tell me, but since I asked I don't think they want to jeopardize theyre reputation over a ~12k car.
The guy I am dealing with is Gregg Rennord. Hes been pretty good considering how much Ive called him and pestered him. Tough doing this stuff over the phone on an older used car sight unseen.
Anyway, Monday they will have all my paperwork and the remainder of my down payment. I believe I will call the place mentioned earlier and have it shipped. Weather permitting Ill zip that thing up to the winding roads of Wisconsin asap.
Stay tuned for a video review of the car and driving impressions.
Also, Ill start budgeting for mods. I understand the car is all stock but Id like to get some headers (cheap ones) mid pipe and mufflers, derestrict the intake, UDP, and have it reflashed for the mods and rev it to ~7k.
First thing though is the m030 suspension and maybe new tires next spring.
Fun.
