I think 17k is about right, although if you start there you will have to come down as everybody has to get a deal. Keep in mind you can buy a high mileage 99 996 for the same price. I know they are different cars, but it's reality and folks may not want to pay that much for an old base Boxster. Wholesale your car is probably worth 10-12k. Post it in excellence pca you are likely to get more informed buyers who know what they are getting.

Good luck, how did you get Porsche to replace your motor so far out of warranty?

They diagnosed the IMS failure and replaced the engine per the class action lawsuit. They covered 90% and the person I bought it from covered the other 10%. The class action suit covered the cars to various degrees for 10 years. I made it in just under the wire!
