  • Today we purchase a cheap Porsche Boxster S 986. This is the best sports car for the money in my opinion. If you want next video, we will straight pipe this budget Boxster next video. We bought this car sight unseen at auction with a clean title, and somehow there is nothing wrong with it.

    I have been driving my 2000 Boxster S for 21 years. 115,000 trouble free miles and I love everything about it. Sounds great, runs perfect.
    Your comment not much faster and not much more power is very wrong. 217 to 255 is significant. 6.4 zero to 60 vs 5.7 is a huge difference as well.
    I would never modify that perfect car.
    Just started watching you guys and really enjoy the video's. Happy New Year.

    I agree, the 986 Boxster is absolutely fantastic. I picked my base 5 speed up, in really fantastic cosmetic condition (interior is as good as yours), but with a clutch so bad it couldn't move, for $2500. Put a clutch in myself in my small one car garage, and now I've got a running and driving amazing shape 986 for $3,000 invested.

    My 2001 Boxster S never fails to put a huge grin on my face, especially due to the sport exhaust on it, making the most glorious, addictive Howl between 4000 and 6000 RPMs and the amazing handling, Phenomenal car... and the best part, as you know? This is the Porsche model that saved Porsche's bacon, so it is the most important piece of course of history, in my humble opinion.

  • @stevelovescars
    @stevelovescars ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I bought a 1999 Boxster last summer in this same color combination. Being a ‘99 it has 201 hp and a 5-speed. Mine had around 70k and the previous owner replaced the clutch and proactively upgraded the IMS and RMS while it was apart. It also has a new top with an upgraded glas rear window and 4 new Pilot Sports on it. The cosmetic condition is about as good as yours. It’s amazing to me that a 1st Gen Miata is still more expensive than one of these… and I love the Miata (have owned two 1.6 examples).
    I am torn on the exhaust question. Mine is also stock and quite quiet… but as it sits I wouldn’t hesitate to take it on a long trip. A louder exhaust can make that uncomfortable if it isn’t a good one.

    My 2000 Boxster S with 62000km runs and sounds great, the NA flat six is awesome, the reason these go for such low prices is many people are afraid of a potential IMS bearing failure. I change my oil every year (full synthetical 0w40 Mobile 1) or 5000km (Toronto Canada) and only drive it in the summer , winter driving with the salt roads is a car destroyer. Maybe try to do the exhaust mod where you drill out a portion of the muffler, it is supposed to sound very good and does not cost much at all. I have considered doing this on mine but have decided to keep it all stock. 250hp and 225lbft is way better than say a Miata.

    I sold my 986 S, also black, to a friend. Mine had the gray interior with black tones which I loved. Also had the turbo twists. I sold it with around 28,500 miles. I would have kept it forever but I needed a back seat for my son. Ended up getting a rather well option 996 C4 X51 with full CF interior package, Carrera wing and aero kit. I love it but the Boxster was still a better drivers car, even with just shy of 100 HP less. I detailed my 986 and like yours was like a mirror finish. I have some amazing pictures I took of that car, black suits it SO well!!!
    Also the Boxster is really about the intake sound, which is right by your left ear. When you get in it, it sounds soooo good. My 996 has the Porsche Sport Exhaust which sounds fantastic as well, but totally different. You really have to drive a Boxster to really understand that intake sound.
