There is no way the old Boxster is a 'bad' car Adam .... Styling may not be to your taste but as a drivers car that can be used every day its unbeatable. Perfect handling and in 3.2 form very fast......Thats just fact...Bad it is not ....

Yup driven one.... nice to drive but they has serious engine issues/failures at the start of their lives, which to me was a great dissappointment to read about on the USA Porsche forum....and those guys took no nonsense from Porsche USA!!!

I now of a few that have had them trouble free ... Most early ones would be sorted by now as well I would imagine. Porsche got it so right with the way it drove... A truely great car that saved the company...Like you Dem I will also have one especially at the prices they now.

that's alright, the facelift cars are a little nicer i think,think they came out in 2002, not sure how much a decent face lift S is though, but that is not a bad car for the money, Guards Red is a nice colour. You going to bid?

I'm not a fan of the face lift ....I do like the clear lights though as the orange seems to date the car a little more ..... Chris has a face lift S up for 11995....

It's in my saved items so maybe .. Just the M5 to sort though and that will not happen before the new year as people are not buying..especially 5 litre cars.

what is the M5 E39 market like? how long are decent ones like yours for sale for?

How longs a piece of string Adam ... Not fast sellers ...Bit like Maserati really ..

Another car I have always had a soft spot for is the 968...especially the Clus Sport .... Or Sport ... Another great from Porsche ...

968 CS is a nice car, especially in speed yellow, although i dont like the yellow wheels, would have them in black.

I like white with the red wheels and graphics...A really nice black with black wheels just sold fo 8k on PH .... A stunner .... 968 CS is one of those must have cars in your garage. Would love to buy a standard 968 and turn it into a track day car .. They are great for that.

that would be worth doing, track car, white with red is nice, i like the 964 C2, I would like on of those and turn it into a RS/track car. Red with black wheels would be my choice.
