Now up for auction is this 2005 Porsche 987 Boxster S finished in Atlas Grey Metallic over a black leather interior. Offering naturally aspirated power from a mid-mounted 3.2 L flat-six engine coupled with the usability of an automatic transmission, this Boxster S is an ideal choice for any driver in search of a practical sports car. A lifelong California car, this 987 is now being listed by its seller in Rancho Mirage with approximately 109k miles showing on the odometer.
The Atlas Grey Metallic paint is described to be in good overall condition aside from some minor road-going wear (detailed images are provided in the photo gallery). CARFAX shows damage to the left side in 2011 with no further information available. This S-model sports silver-painted side intake grilles, red brake calipers, and 17” Boxster S wheels with brand new tires. The colored Porsche center crests are shown to be fading.
Inside, this 987 is appointed with a black standard leather interior featuring heated front seats, automatic climate control, and a Bose sound system. Other factory options include self-dimming mirrors and integrated rain sensor, a remote 6-disc CD changer, and the Bi-Xenon Headlamp Package. An upgraded Pioneer radio with Apple Carplay and Bluetooth has been installed, and the seller reports the cabin to be in very good condition with all gauges and accessories remaining fully functional.
This Boxster S carries a mid-mounted naturally aspirated 3.2 L flat-six engine that sends 280 HP and 236 lb.-ft of torque to the rear wheels through a 5-speed automatic Tiptronic S transmission. The 4-piston brakes with ventilated rotors are equipped as standard and this 987 also features Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM). All necessary maintenance items are said to have been addressed and the car is noted to be in fantastic running order with a new battery recently installed.
This sale will include a set of 2 keys and a clean title. Whether you're in search of a daily driver or weekend sports car, this Boxster S offers a fantastic value.

@az911 I have had the car serviced by the same guy for the last 8 years a Porsche certified mechanic. I can get you all the service records. The car has new tires. They were put on in Jan. 2021. It's in excellent shape.

In terms of maintenance items, when were tires and brakes last replaced (date and mileage)? Date and details of most recent annual service? Thank you.
I am not sure I mentioned this car has been excellent. Low maintenance and fun to drive! We are selling it because we don't have any more space in the garage and we bought a 911!
@jbdash2 the window is glass
@pmmsinger thank you. Is the window of the soft top glass or plastic? I will see how the auction plays out but if I have any other questions I will be in touch.

@Schmi7z hi there it would be an est. of $1000 to $1500 to ship to California to Germany plus a $165 document fee. We found this information by googling overseas shipping from California to Germany. Hope this helps. Thank you for your interest. P.
what would shipping to Germany cost?
@jbdash2 hi thanks for your interest however the reserve is undisclosed.
@pmmsinger thank you for your quick responses. Are you able to share what the reserve is or approximately is? I am local to Southern CA.
@jbdash2 We bought a 911 and no room for 3 cars in the garage.
@jbdash2 The damage that was done before we owned the car was very minor. We have had the car since 2013 and has been an excellent car and low maintenance. The car has been serviced and maintained properly. Great car the only reason we are selling is because I bought another Porsche.
Do you have any info from the reported damage on the carmax report from owner #2? Any upcoming or delayed maintenance that you’re aware of?
