Those really aren't worth more than $3,000-$4,000, but I feel bad for you so I will give you my 2002 Boxster S as an even swap for it, just because I'm such a nice guy. I'll be by tomorrow to pick it up.

Unless you're going to turn around and sell it, I wouldn't worry about how much it's worth, it's possible you might be disappointed.

You just got yourself a badass ride, enjoy it!

I wonder if Roock addressed the IMS issue like Jake does?

Well it's hard to estimate a price without more details, such as the year. But here goes my best guess...

The early standard 986 is going cheap now, as low at $8,000 for high mileage examples. $13,000 for more reasonable cars. I think the 2000+ Boxster S is more in the $18,000 to $20,000 range. Let's say though that an extremely low mileage Boxster S would go for $22,000. Again, this really depends on the year though, as you can add a couple thousand for each year newer than 2000 your car is. Throw in a 340 HP 3.6L (I assume this car started as a Boxster S) and I think you could add anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000 to that price. It depends on how "complete" the package was that Roock put together. Do you have suspension work as well as the wheels, exhaust, and engine? Brake work? Interior upgrades? I think this car could easily be worth $30,000 especially considering the low mileage.

This car is a well optioned 02 S . I believe it has the full Roock Package except interior parts. It has H&R coil over setup Not shure of the brakes , does not look like 6 piston all around but the rotors look larger than standard S brakes.

This car was owned by a wealthy man who also owns multiple exotic cars. He bought the car brand new in 02 and the conversion was also done in 02. I like this car alot I still think this car could easily use more power than the 3.6 has.
