Hey guys, just bought a Boxster. How did I do?

Just picked up a boxster last week and it is a blast. I own a 350z too, but this thing is totally different. Much more refined.

The details... Its a 2002 Boxster non-S with tiptronic and 64K miles. The back window has a rip. I already ordered a new plastic piece to sew in from ebay. I paid 17K even for it. The interior looks great, I just need to clean up the shift knob. I guess the last owner had dirty hands.

I would get some pictures but its been very nasty here the last week with snow. Haven't even been able to drive it since I parked it from the dealership! So, how did I do on the price? Is it what I would expect to pay? I kind of bought it on a whim.

Just wanted to say hey, this is my first Porsche.

But I can tell say, best of luck and have a great time.

Where did you buy in Illinois? I hope you did a Pre Purchase Inspection (PPI). Buying the car is the easy part. Paying for proper maintenance is where it gets tricky and expensive.

Congrats on the new car.

Do You like it? You did good.

In other words, enjoy the car.
