The 986 Boxster
Since it's launch in 1996, the Boxster has seen off all comers. Driving the car you soon realise that
still nothing comes close. The best Roadster money can buy? Probably. As a package the Boxster is as
close to a precision driving instrument that many of us are likely to get, to get a better performance
drop top you have to spend an awful lot more money, and this is why the Boxster is so successful, a
virtually unrivalled convertible that has sensible running costs and renound reliability.

The early drive-by-wire cars with amber lenses are the models leading the appreciation curve, these are
the Boxster's to have. What a special colour too!

Condition
Looks to be mostly all original paint, this is evident looking in and around the shut lines where appears
to be factory finish, it's lovely to see. Stone chips and the odd blemish is all. The nose appears to be
all original paint so it has some chips and some cracks in the paint. There is no corrosion anywhere on
the body. The rear bumper has fresh paint and it looks to be a 10/10 job, amazing.
The cabin is a delight with fresh looking floors especially around the pedals and heel mat all is very
clean and belies the miles. Chairs are in superb order and more or less unmarked as is the steering wheel
with perfect unmarked leather. A very clean and fresh little Porsche inside and out.
Wheels are desirable Porsche option 18" BBS split rim sport classic II and they present well. The
convertible roof works and the canvas is fresh and clean and the rear window is not too cloudy. It presents
very well all around the edges, Arena red is a delight and I love it, it makes a Porsche a special thing.

Summary
It's lovely.. I would be happy to have this in my own garage. An excellent introduction to the Porsche
hobby and a car that is appreciating today. The early 2.5 drive by wire car with amber lenses is the model
that is leading the appreciation curve, these early Boxsters are the cars to have - and what a colour!!
