Boxster Price....

[jh_007]

Hi - i'm looking at buying a Boxster S.

Found one at a London Porsche dealer I really like.

- 03 plate
- PCM
- 3k miles
- bose sound
- heated leather seats.
- Dark Grey.

Seems to be well decked out.

Garage wants £41k for it.

I thought this seems pretty high. What are your thoughts?

Without the exact spec its hard to know.

Base new Boxster S price was £38K. But my first one cost £48K and my second about £45K. My ones didn't even have Sat Nav. You can (if you try very hard) spend about £55K.

However - there are LOADS of Boxsters around. If you don't like the price go find another one...

Thanks for that nugget there Tommy.

The 3.2L I tried actually had a good amount of poke in it.

poke compared to what a cortina

[jh_007]

That's right.

Tommy's just having fun, mate.

Seriously: If you don't think the price is right go looking elsewhere. Plenty to choose from.

At 41K you've got to look at ordering new. Sure you wouldn't get any toys but the new model has 280bhp.

A cortina would still be faster, of course...

Thanks Don (great surname BTW!)

I'll keep looking around. Really just looking for an S with the PCM, Bose Sound and low milage.

Did like the £41k one though. Will probably end up buying.

Isn't it! Enjoy your car whatever you get. And bring it along to a PH meet!

I'm an imposter in the Boxster Forum .....

Ever considered an Alpina Roadster S ?



(I'm anticipating abuse for even suggesting this.)
