2003 Boxster S replaces 1998 Jaguar XK8
I promised my wife that I would not buy a Porsche without first selling the Jaguar, unlike when I bought the Jag before selling the BMW convertible - resulting in four cars on the property. However it was love at first drive when I sampled this one via a spirited test drive, so I left a deposit cheque and hurried home to sell the Jag that evening. The Porsche needs a few small dents repaired by a Dent Doctor, some minor scratches touched up, and a new windshield would be nice as there are two stone chips plus some general sand-blasting. The car's first ten years were in Texas and NC, followed by two summers in Ontario, Canada. Total 102,500 miles on it when I purchased it with new brakes and tires as of last summer. Overall condition quite good. Not too many options, but does include Tiptronic 5 speed and Litronic headlights. Colour is Arctic Silver, with a black top and black leather inside.http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1429640988.jpg

Porsche vs Jag
Congratulations, nice car. I have a 2003 S 6 speed I am very happy with. When I bought it I was considering a 2001 Jag XKR Silverstone convertible vs the Porsche and I was very close but ultimately the Boxster won out.
Way more fun to drive and although both require $$$ in upkeep I think the Porsche is a better made vehicle and a true sports car. |
