Porsche 987 Boxster Spyder

The current owner purchased this Spyder in 2018 with 7,011 miles from European Collectibles. Schneider Autohaus in Santa Barbara, California performed a 10K mile maintenance which included replacing the engine oil and filter, cabin filter, installing a sealing ring, and checking all the fluids. Mechanically, the Boxster Spyder features a 3.4-liter six-cylinder engine paired to a 7-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission, which produces a 0-60 time of just 4 seconds. A true, genuine, roadster sports car destined only to appreciate, this Boxster is a great valued opportunity.

History

Hard to believe but the Boxster line is 25 years old now. When the car launched in 1997, reviews were positive and constantly improved as this car never seemed to disappoint with regards to looks and drivability. With their mid-engine layout and nearly perfect 50/50 weight distribution, it quickly developed a dedicated following.

The 2011 Boxster Spyder was heavily praised by the automotive press upon its release. Road and Track referred to it as «the perfect sports car.» and described its skidpad and figure 8 test results as «Ferrari 458 Italia numbers for less than a third of the price.» Car & Driver praised the acceleration, reaching from 0-60 in an incredibly quick 4 seconds.
