It was hard to capture in photographs just how stunning the car looks. The nose has some minor stone chips from freeway driving and there are a few faint scratches found under careful scrutiny (too faint to be photographed). but overall. the paint is very nice . No rust. INTERIOR: Very clean Savanna Biege interior. Rare factory heated seats that work well. Non-smoker. No fading on trim pieces. Driver's seat shows minor wear from use. but no rips or tears in the leather. E-brake plastic cover has a crack in it. Armrest needs new hinges (common and easy fix). Overall. the interior retains a very "like new" look. DRIVING: Starts. shifts. brakes. accelerates. and drives flawlessly. Motor is very healthy pulling strong through the entire rev range. Silky smooth both hot/cold with no unusual noises. Car tracks straight down the road and does not pull while braking. Steering is razor sharp and the car still feels "tight". Runs cool and never overheats. Nice crisp clutch engagement for one of the best feeling gearboxes I've felt in an early Boxster. No warning lights illuminated on the dash and the air conditioning blows cold. Overall. the car drives just as nice as cars with half the mileage. The 2. 5L flat six in these early Boxster's sounds absolutely amazing. a very mechanical sound reminiscent of the old air-cooled 911's. with a spine tingling exhaust note on full throttle. MAINTENANCE: Included will be service history from the previous owner (2003-2013) and the factory maintenance booklet with all appropriate dealership service stamps from the original owner (1999-2003). This Boxster has been lovingly maintained and enthusiast owned for its entire life. and it shows. Have clean Carfax on hand. CONVERTIBLE TOP: The Metropol Blue convertible top nicely accents the Ocean Blue Metallic paint. It's in good condition but shows minor wear from use (see pics). Functions flawlessly with no holes or major blemishes. Rubber trim is in good condition. New rear window just sewn in before my purchase. Included is the "red clip" which activates the interior motion sensor if you wish to leave the car unattended with the top down. ISSUES: Car just had the oil changed. Starts. shifts. brakes. accelerates. and drives flawlessly. Only known is passenger window riser arm is sluggish—have to manually assist it up sometime. The auction includes a replacement window riser arm/part and would run you ~2 hours of labor at your favorite mechanic.
