Finally! Worth the wait :)



2002 Porsche Boxster S. As some of you may know, I've been saving and waiting for the perfect deal to come along. And here it is!! And its an S, and the color i wanted! Woohoo!!

So a little info....

Mileage: 193k (However; it got a new motor shortly after breaking 100k on the chassis)

IMS?: The new motor, coming from porsche had a new and updated dual bolt IMS and bearing. Considered to fail much less... So yes? It is done? I may still put the LN one in the next time it needs a clutch, as this IMS has almost 100k on it....

Condition? AWESOME! However, it will need a top (plastic window is cracking around the corners due to being parked at his work during the summer in 100+ degrees. :/) The paint is awesome, but one wheel is discolored and will need repainting, but other than that, it is virtually perfect :P

Such an awesome car, and sounds AMAZING!! Ahhh!!

What a great day :P

Mrmaddbrad,
The S has the sweetest exhaust note, doesn't it?
Espesially as the tach needle passes 6k!
Could that be why I get such crappy mileage?!

Hahaha exactly!! It just begs to be revved up!

Have been getting plenty of extra attention from pedestrians and other cars, especially at stop lights... Can't say I don't love it though
