Silver with blue interior and top, about 70% on the tire and 80% on the pads. So you should be able to bargain it down a little for 27K.
Of course it is the spring and I bought mine a couple of months ago.
Thanks JP,

I did my research and was able to get it for $25,400. This paritcular dealership does a lot of volume and obviously did not want to pass on a sale.

After really putting the car to the test today, I am blown away! It is my first Porsche after having a Z3, SlK, RX 7 R2, Shelby GT 500 and others. There is truly no comparison. Hopefully there are not hidden problems.

Glad to be an official member now.

I think you did well

I think that you got a very fair price.

I paid considerably more for my 2003 S (purchased in Feb.), and I attribute that to:

mine had 20,500 miles at purchase
Bose system
flawless everything
Tiptronic
NEW tires
full maint. records / one older owner
full service was included

I hope you enjoy the car - and post some photos soon.

I got my 2003 Base Box (Flawless, 23k miles, Bose, New Tires.) last July for $24K.

All the comparable "S" models out there were $29k or above.

Sounds like I should have held out for a while longer, eh?

......nah, love my Boxster. Sure you will too.
