This is a beautiful, original, stock, early production Porsche '986' Boxster, in quintessential Guards Red/black. Runs great, with 125K well loved miles. IMS update documented and done. Southern (Carolina) car, now in Indiana, with fresh paint, seats & rear window. Highlights: *IMS bearing upgrade done (L&N unit). If you don’t know what this is, look it up before buying a 986/996 car! *Beautiful newer paint (not from accident or damage, just from some southern sun fading) *Seats recently reupholstered (same as above) *Newer tires *New shift linkage *High performance clutch *Runs and drives great *Crystal clear rear window *Automatic top works great *Ice cold A/C*Clean/clear IN title in hand, and ready to be transferred to the next owner Areas for improvement: *There is a slight shimmy in the steering wheel over bumps (likely needs new front strut < $100 here on eBay). Never really noticed this in the south, only when we got it to the beautiful roads of northern Indiana for the summer. *HVAC readout is about shot. Can still read if you try. New one from Modulemaster.com or here on eBay is $75 & an easy swap. A/C works great.*Occasional (& common in these cars) starter whine for 2 secs on cold start. Overall, this certainly isn't a perfect car, but is a great looking, running, & driving Boxster, and would make a great starter, autocross, or track Porsche (never been tracked to this point). Where else can you find this much fun and Porsche technology for seven grand? Act now, and enjoy the remainder of the summer in top down fashion! I encourage all potential buyers to come inspect the car in person prior to buying or bidding. Your bid is a binding contract. Feel free to call me with any questions or for more information. Car condition is subjective. I have owned over 100 Porsches, and am picky about my cars, but potential owners should decide for themselves if this car is for them. Car is sold AS IS, WHERE IS. I can help with very reasonable domestic shipping arrangements, but transportation is ultimately the responsibility of the buyer. International bidders are welcome, but please have U.S. funds and transportation arranged prior to auctions end. Zero or negative feedback bidders please contact me prior to bidding or your bid may be cancelled. Please only bid or offer if you are serious. Finally, feel free to email or call me at 574-361-5315 with any questions, more details, or if you'd like to make an offer. Good luck!
