Starting my Boxster adventure.

[bkieffer]

After a lifetime of ogling Porsches and a year or so of searching for a Boxster after discovering that owning one was within the realm of possibility for me, I finally have keys and title in my hand.

It's a 2001 Boxster S, and was advertised on CL as a roller, but it starts and runs. AOS failed and needs replacement. Some water that leaked through the driver's side door seal triggered the immobilizer, but after drying out, the car starts right up.

I'm sure there are some other issues given the low price I paid, but I'm really looking forward to putting in the work. It likely needs a clutch replacement, so I'll do the IMS while I'm in there.

I was looking for a Porche, drop top, or project car, and this baby ticks all three boxes.
