Default '99 986 Base Tip

FS: '99 Boxster, $7000, excellent entry-level Porsche, and just a good car, period. 25ish MPG HWY. Good commuter car, good, safe, and reliable car for a young person. ABS, dual airbags and side airbags.

Drives tight. Starts, runs, brakes, turns, accelerates very nicely. Doesn't leak anything. Zero. Try that on your $150,000 air-cooled 911.

Roof completely watertight. Much TLC. L&N ceramic IMS bearing. This motor will go hundreds of thousands of miles as is. Currently inspected, registered, insured. Hit 100k today 1-28-17.

Base Tiptronic. Arctic White, black leather. New-ish Pirellis. Very sticky, quiet and comfortable tires. Huge cargo capacity for a small sports car. It is in fact a very practical car for a single person or a couple not needing to schlepp kids or dogs. Hot heat, cold AC.

Driver and passenger airbags, power mirrors, windows, top, info center. Upgraded factory audio.

Carmax said it "shows very well" and made an offer. For a '99 with 100K!

IMS-? FIXED! High end ceramic bearing professionally installed.
NEVER buy a 986 without an upgraded IMS unless you want a paperweight as it will blow sooner or later. Engines cost $18K. This engine work cost $2300.
Carmax said it "shows very well" and made an offer. For a '99 with 100K!

NEW OEM TOP! $2000 easy. NO leaks.

NEW DISKS/PADS.
NEW COMPUTER.
NEW COOLANT PUMP/MAIN HOSE/THERMOSTAT
NEW AIR/OIL SEPARATOR
NEW MAF
NEW ENGINE AIR FILTER
NEW CABIN AIR FILTER
NEW CLOCKSPRING (horn/airbag actuator)
NEW BATTERY
NEW PLUGS
NEW IGN SWITCH
GEARBOX/TRANSAXLE FLUSHED
NEW SERPENTINE BELT
OEM CD PLAYER INSTALLED.
NEW LUG BOLTS
GEAR SELECTOR ACTUATOR ROD
ATF COOLANT VALVE
O2 SENSORS

Interior is pretty good. Leather seats solid, no rips or split seams. No cracks on dash. Zero major defects.

This car cost $53K new in 1999! I have the window sticker.

What can I say...it's a 99 so it's got some small dings, I mean minor. Gravel chips. Roadside branch scratches. Etc.

But everything, and I do mean everything from the horn to the exhaust tip, WORKS.

Options per window sticker:
Tiptronic
18" Turbo wheels
Casette shelf center console (you know you want it)
Cruise
Hi-Fi Sound pkg w/ speakers
Remote Control Alarm System
Porsche Windstop
On Board Computer (info ctr)

Fifty. Three. Thousand. Dollars. In 1999.

Is this a FS or a WTB ad? you might want to add that to the title.

Also, if FS, you must provide an asking price.
