New Porsche owner!
Purchased a 2000 Boxster about 10 days ago. Have done a lot of reading around here in the past two weeks while purchasing and getting to know this car so thought I would post an intro and thanks to all of you.
Short story : Was casually looking for a second/commute car and starting to focus down to Miata, MR2, Boxster, etc... Saw a well presented Craigs list ad for this very clean looking car a few weeks ago and had to go see it. 52k miles on body, 15k on dealer installed warranty replacement engine. Garage kept with avg 2k per year for the past 10 years. Found Porsche mechanic to do PPI and only issues found were torn rear CV boot and non-Porsche coolant. Finished deal that same day. Everything works in this car as if it were new. Previous owner was more of a polisher than a driver and it shows. Wheels were replaced a few years back with the Porsche 18" BBS Sport Design wheels offered as an option on this model. Just a beautiful combination with the Arctic silver / black car. Had same mechanic do the CV boots yesterday and I am set for a while. Mechanic groaned when I told him the color! Why do these people keep buying silver cars when there are so many better colors says he!
This is a super fun car and looking forward to years of great driving. Pics to come if I can find the time to do anything but drive it!
Cheers. Richard
