This 1998 Porsche Boxster has 52k miles and is powered by a 2.5-liter flat-six paired with a five-speed Tiptronic automatic transaxle. It is finished in Arctic Silver Metallic over Savanna Beige partial leather and optioned with a body-color hardtop and a black soft top. Further equipment includes 17″ Carrera-look twist-spoke wheels, a deployable rear spoiler, heated seats, a Hi-Fi sound system, an automatic braking differential, and traction control. The car spent time in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Minnesota, and Florida before the selling dealer’s 2024 acquisition. This 986 Boxster was previously offered by the selling dealer on BaT in June 2024 and is now offered in Pennsylvania at no reserve with partial service records, a clean Carfax report, and a clean Minnesota title.

The car is finished in Arctic Silver Metallic with a matching removable hardtop as well as a black soft top. Additional details include a speed-activated rear spoiler, side air intakes, and roll hoops.

The 17″ Carrera-look twist-spoke alloy wheels are mounted with Continental ExtremeContact Sport tires. Braking is handled by four-piston Porsche-branded calipers fitted over vented rotors at all four corners. The car was ordered with traction control with anti-slip regulation (ASR) and an automatic braking differential (ABD).

The cabin features heated seats upholstered in Savanna Beige leather with a color-coordinated dashboard and door panels. Features include central locking, a Hi-Fi sound system, and automatic climate control.

The leather-wrapped steering wheel features Tiptronic shift buttons and fronts a central tachometer, a 160-mph speedometer, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The digital odometer indicates 52k miles.

The mid-mounted 2.5-liter M96 flat-six was factory rated at 201 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque. The mass airflow sensor was replaced in May 2023.

Power is routed to the rear wheels via a five-speed Tiptronic automatic transaxle.
