I found marijuana roaches, two rusty lighters, dried puke, and corroded change under my seats when I yanked them out to replace them.

I am the 4th owner of my car and most probably, the 2nd or 3rd owner was a party animal or at the very least, transported a couple of party animals around in the car. The passenger seat base was so crusty and cardboard-stiff from all the dried puke that I couldn't wait to replace the seats.

However, the ULTIMATE Boxster Secret I discovered a week after purchase was when my mechanic called me over to look at the bottom side of the car up on a lift. He said, "see how filthy your transmission case is? Compare that to the pristine clean and BRAND NEW motor someone put in this car a couple of days before you bought it!"

I paid $7k under blue book for my car. The kid who sold it to me was using his dad's dealer's license to buy and sell Boxsters out of the Miami auction and never took the time to have his mechanic look over my car. He bought it and put it on ebay the day he drove it home from the auction, thinking it had the original motor in it with 84k on it.
