There seems to be a lot of privately written books rattling around out there for sale, but strangely with Porsche selling everything short of branded diapers, they don't have a book collection that covers the brand available for sale (or at least from what I can tell). You think it would be easy prey given they'll have all the archive access and the likes to make a set of information that couldn't be created otherwise.

Then again I shudder to think of the prohibitive cost of such a thing if it were to exist...

Also curious if there's any 986 and/or Boxster specific publications that anyone cares to endorse as a must have.
If you can find someone selling a set, the OEM 13 volume service manual set:



The OBD II manual would also be an excellent addition, but are much rarer.
