I looked at a cherry guards red 2000 Boxter S with 20K miles yesterday. Seemed kind of pricy at $32.0K
Any boxter owners out there with comments on 2000 year models, prices, other ? That was the first car I looked at, I'm shooting to purchase by May. Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated. |

I agree with everything stated so far, Definetly get an S, they are what the boxster should have been all along. And if you can swing it extended warr. could save you. When you have the PPI done mention the crank seal, and be sure they check for that leak. Some cars get it and others don't but in my exp. once it leaks once they are alot more prone to leak again. I have seen cars go 100k without a drop and others nead a seal every 20k. really is hit or miss and doesn't seam to be related to driving habits. By all means get one though, they are a blast to drive. And frankly I enjoy them (and thier owners) alot more than the 911's.
