Porsche Boxster S 981, 6-speed. Search over

I’ve shifted my search away from Targas given market conditions and decided I just don’t need the drama that often comes with an older car, even as reliable and satisfying as the air cooled boxers sixes are.

I’ve owned a Boxster RS60 in the past and was very happy with it. Newer ones are too laden with tech for me. The 981 generation seems to be the sweet spot in terms of value and driving satisfaction, so I’m looking specifically for a 981 (2012/13-2016), must be an “S” and must be a 6-speed MT. Open to any color except black.

I regularly monitor the usual suspects….BAT, Pcar Market, PCA Mart, PCNA dealer inventory, etc. Leads or referrals are also appreciated.

Thanks!

 

Thanks for reminding me….the GTS would be optimum.

 

Thanks, Dave!

 

By the way, as well as including the GTS I should have excluded the Spyder.
Thanks, all.

 

Thanks! You have a PM.

Thanks, Phil. I just received it on my BAT feed about 30 minutes ago. I wish it had more performance options, but at least the sport exhaust sounds right! Good luck on your search. I’ve missed a few in the last couple of weeks.

 

A 987.2 S is an acceptable alternative. There’s one that meets mt specs on BAT but it’s black/black.

 

I purchased a great 997.2 S six speed with 16,000 miles, spec’ed almost as I would have ordered it new; mechanically and cosmetically flawless, fully serviced The car was an under the radar referral, never advertised. It isn’t a unicorn but definitely a hen’s tooth. I feel pretty lucky.

Thanks, Curt.

So you retrofitted a full leather interior into your 991? If that’s correct would you mind PMing details to me? I’ve read that the full leather is far superior to standard leather which is what I have.

Thanks again.

Jack.

 

Thanks, Stuart! Great to hear from you. Let me know when you’re ready!

 

Thanks, Terry!
