This Porsche 986 Boxster got away, but there are more like it here.
This 2000 Porsche Boxster is finished in Zenith Blue Metallic over Graphite Gray leather and is powered by a 2.7-liter flat-six paired with a five-speed manual transaxle. The car remained registered in North Carolina from new until the selling dealer’s recent purchase and relocation to Tennessee, and it now has 46k miles. Features include a gray soft top, 18″ SportDesign wheels, a deployable rear spoiler, heated seats, a Pioneer CD stereo, cruise control, and automatic climate control. Work completed in preparation for the sale is said to have included changing the oil, servicing the climate control system, and replacing the soft top. This 986 Boxster is now offered in Tennessee by the selling dealer at no reserve with the owner’s manual, a clean Carfax report, and a clean North Carolina title.
The car is finished in Zenith Blue Metallic and features a gray soft top that was replaced in preparation for the sale. Additional features include a speed-activated rear spoiler, side air intakes, and body-color roll hoops. The seller notes touched-up blemishes on the body and additional imperfections are visible in the photo gallery below.
The 18″ SportDesign wheels are mounted with a mix of Michelin Pilot Sport tires measuring 225/40 up front and 265/35 out back. Braking is handled by four-piston Porsche-branded calipers fitted over vented rotors at all four corners.
The cabin features heated seats upholstered in Graphite Gray leather along with a color-coordinated dashboard and door panels. Features include a wind deflector, cruise control, automatic climate control, and a Pioneer CD stereo. The driver’s seat upholstery has been repaired and the selling dealer reports that the climate control system was serviced in preparation for the sale.
The leather-wrapped steering wheel fronts a central tachometer, a 160-mph speedometer, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 46k miles.
The mid-mounted 2.7-liter flat-six was factory rated at 217 horsepower and 192 lb-ft of torque. The oil was changed in preparation for the sale.
Power is routed to the rear wheels via a five-speed manual transaxle.
