Originally delivered to Kempthorn Motors in Canton, Ohio in March 2002, this 986 Boxster has enjoyed a well-documented and enthusiast-owned life. The car spent its first eight years in Ohio before relocating to Indiana, where it remained for the next fifteen years. In 2025, it was acquired by its most recent owner and relocated to Charlotte, North Carolina, where it has continued to receive regular maintenance and servicing through MP Motorwerks, a local independent Porsche service specialist.
Throughout its ownership history, this Boxster has been consistently maintained and thoughtfully cared for, with extensive service records documenting both routine maintenance and preventative repairs.
In addition to the items listed above, routine maintenance, fluid services, and inspections have been completed throughout the vehicle’s life, reflecting a history of attentive ownership rather than deferred maintenance.
Power comes from Porsche’s naturally aspirated 3.2-liter flat-six engine, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. Enhanced by the Fabspeed Supersport exhaust, the car delivers the unmistakable sound and character that helped establish the Boxster as one of Porsche’s most engaging driver’s cars.
Showing approximately 37,000 miles and accompanied by a clean CARFAX, this example represents an increasingly difficult-to-find, low-mileage 986. It remains a superb tribute to Porsche’s analog era, offering lightweight balance, direct steering feel, and an engaging open-top driving experience that modern sports cars often struggle to replicate.
Factory options include the desirable Sport Package, Heated Front Seats Package, and Porsche-crested headrests. The sale includes one key and all original owner’s literature. The convertible top is fully functional, with only a small tear noted in the fabric.
Well-maintained, tastefully upgraded, and supported by extensive records, this 2002 Boxster presents an opportunity to acquire one of the most thoughtfully cared-for examples of the 986 generation.
