This 1999 Porsche Boxster spent time in California and New Mexico before it was acquired by the seller on BaT in May 2023, and it now indicates 65k miles. The car is a triple-black example that is powered by a 2.5-liter flat-six paired with a five-speed manual transaxle. It is also equipped with a replacement soft top, a deployable rear spoiler, 16″ alloy wheels, a Becker-Porsche CDR-220 stereo, and automatic climate control. Work under current ownership included replacing the brake master cylinder, brake booster, air filter, serpentine belt, and spark plugs. This 986 Boxster is offered at no reserve with a clean Nebraska title in the seller’s name.
The car is finished in black, and the seller notes that it was fitted with a replacement Sierra Auto canvas top under current ownership. Additional exterior details include a speed-activated rear spoiler, side air intakes, and roll hoops. The Carfax report shows that the front of the car sustained damage in December 2017. The seller states that a paint correction was performed in preparation for the sale, and it has reportedly been applied with a ceramic coating product. Noted blemishes include dings and dents around the body.
Silver-finished 16″ alloy wheels are mounted with 205/55 front and 225/50 rear Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 tires. Braking is handled by four-piston Porsche-branded calipers fitted over vented rotors at all four corners. The brake master cylinder, brake booster, and regulator valve were replaced in June 2023.
The seats are trimmed in black leather and accompanied by a color-coordinated dashboard and door panels. Appointments include automatic climate control, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, and a Becker-Porsche CDR-220 stereo. The cruise-control system is inoperative, and the stereo controls are damaged and sticky.
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 65k miles, approximately 1k of which were added by the seller.
The mid-mounted 2.5-liter M96 flat-six produced 201 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque when new. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a five-speed manual transaxle. The air filter, oil, serpentine belt, and spark plugs were replaced in June 2023.
