Anyone Need a New Motor Cheap?

saw this on Ebay; most would probably miss it since Boxster or 996 aren't in the title; it's a new Cayman motor:

In fairness to the seller, they seem to have a fairly reputable "presence" and in the ad they offer installation services.

Didn't see that; good call. Maybe I am too paranoid!

i'm assuming it's not the 's'. can't imagine someone would go through the expense of replacing a new 300HP motor with a new 325HP or 355HP motor.

Will it fit in a 2001 Boxster?

I think I could/should get this item. I've got 50K on my motor now, but probably will be at 100K in a year. Hmmm...

What about the DME on a 2001? Will it run the 2007 Caymen motor??
