The car in question is a 1997 model with Silver/red interior with 145,000km (90,000miles).
The owner (not sure if he is on the forum)says the following has been done/upgraded...
*intake plenum
*Bored out throttle body
*Deep Sump (Mantis Racing)
*Oil Sump Baffle
*TRS 4" under drive pulley
*SACHS OEM Clutch Kit
*TRS Light Weight Fly wheel
*LN Engineering IMS
*EVO High Flow Intake
*Magnetic Oil Drain Plug
*Oil Drain Plug Washer
*Fuel Filter
*Engine mount insert soft (60A) Orange
*Air/Oil separator
*Water pump
*Rear Main Seal
*Transmission Mounts

Big items that stand out to me as a plus are the RMS, IMS, clutch and waterpump.
I have a regular car for more mundane tasks. The Boxster would be a fun car, though i imagine this won't last and i will be looking for an excuse to use it often. The car would be stored winters (Nov to April/May)
I've owned my 86 e30 since 1994. 218K on the clock, one owner. 290K on it now. Anyhow... I thought that thing rode on rails... until the 986. Night and day. Apples and oranges. Adam and Eve. Chuck and Larry.

Get a PPI. Post pics. Welcome!
