2003 Porsche Boxster "S"

Very nice condition with one owner for over 12 years. Engine was replaced (documented by Porsche Service Manager) with a 2004 Porsche factory re-manufactured unit just 44. 00+ miles ago. The car runs very strong and. as an "S" has the benefit of a 6 speed and optional 18" alloy 911 wheels. The Boxster "S" does not show the typical front or rear bumper "rash" nor does it have any indication of previous or present body damage. There are a few minor scrapes on the outer edge of the wheels as is characteristic with a vehicle of this vintage. A truly lovely. high performance "S" with documented repair history. recent mechanical upgrades and wonderful drivability. ”
