The Boxster GT

Don't laugh, but as a Porsche enthusiast I couldn't say no! For $3k in the mountains of Pennsylvania, I found this: Its horrible what they did to this poor Boxster, but I couldn't just let it go to the dump. Its a 98' Boxster with a Carrerra GT shell on it. It was literally it a swamped barn with the roof caved in on it.

*** Does anyone have an immobilizer for sale? ***

SUV is the translation of truck to "suburbanese". As in not a car...

You didn't hear about the PSC (Porsche Select-o-Color) Option? It's about as popular as PSM

Actually, I thought the ad says 2 for 6000.

One of my old girl friends called her 4 runner atruck. She was not happy about being corrected on that. I guess to some if it's not a car it's a truck. I have a Polaris rzr and some folks call those a bike I always thought a bike had 2 wheels.

Poor baby! You know what they say about inexpensive Porsches? There is no inexpensive Porsche. (I know from experience.)

Don't you just love it when owners post pictures of their instrument cluster in their Craigslist ads? Especially with warning lights and messages.

So, is that not just how it looks when the key is on, but the motor isn't started?

I don't know, mine isn't anywhere near that new, hahaha

The tach is reading 625 so it's running.

But yeah, a lot newer than mine, too!

$400 for a no-motor 944 isn't bad. Looks pretty good otherwise.

A $400 944? I recently saw a 944 with a recent Chevy small block. It fit just fine, and I bet it's a lot of fun to drive. Might make a fun project car!

Located in Houston, I wonder if that 944 was under water recently?
