I wonder if there are some different scoops like from the C4 or the anniversary edition 996 that could be used to channel the air to the radiators efficiently.

I like the look but would not add it to my car as I'm not a huge fan of making a car look like something it's not. No disrespect intended to anyone who goes that route...personal taste.

Porsche Boxter S 3.2L used engine - $4000 61,000 miles Kennett Square, PA

I flagged that one earlier this evening...showed up on local CL in NW FL. We've had lots of bogus adds the last week or so.

An ad similar that - same pic and title showed up on Des Moines CL. However, it was using an abbreviated version of my 911 ad copy. Couldn't believe it. Immediately flagged it.

Are they trolling for email addrs and phone #s?

Clean Looking 1997 with only 14K miles on it.

Well optioned with hardtop:

For me, I like a driver with a few scuffs and dings, but I can appreciate a pristine example.

Not mine, wish it was...wish I had the money for this now:

What a time capsule! Even has IMS updated.

Porsche Dyno wheels. ;)

I've read that they were only produced one year and only in 17", but that may or may not be true. I would love to get my hands on a set.

dghii 11-06-2017 06:34 PM

First time I've seen those wheels but not a fan. Look like wheel covers you can get at Pep Boys.

IMHO, worth every penny.

Just sayin'...............

Apparently those wheels are the schizzle for PCA Spec Boxster racing, as they are the lightest OEM 17 inch wheels. I don't care for the look of them for a street car either, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder and someone who buys that car should at least keep them to preserve authenticity even if the new owner drives it with something else.
