This 2013 Porsche Boxster S comes finished in GT Silver Metallic and was custom ordered by its original owner with a Yachting Blue leather interior, a 6-speed manual transmission, 20” Carrera S wheels, a SportDesign steering wheel, and painted roll bars. The $81,250 original window sticker also includes heated and ventilated 18-way Adaptive Sport Seats Plus, the Premium Package, Infotainment Package with BOSE, Bi-Xenon headlights, and Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM). Cared for by only two owners, this Boxster S is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Washington while showing just over 10k miles on the odometer.
The Boxster S is distinguished from the base Boxster model by red-painted brake calipers and dual center-mounted tailpipes. This 2013 example is finished in GT Silver Metallic and features optional painted supplemental roll bars as well as Bi-Xenon headlights, and 20” Carrera S wheels with colored Porsche crest center caps. The seller describes the car to be in excellent overall condition, detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
The Yachting Blue leather interior features an optional SportDesign steering wheel and 18-way Adaptive Sport Seats Plus with heating and ventilation. The optional Premium Package adds auto-dimming mirrors with an integrated rain sensor, a wind deflector, and two-zone automatic climate control. Other options include Voice Control and Infotainment Package with BOSE which also includes Porsche Communication Management (PCM) with a 7” color touchscreen, Universal Audio Interface, HD Radio, and SiriusXM satellite radio.
A naturally aspirated 3.4-liter flat-six engine delivers up to 315 HP and 266 lb.-ft of torque to the rear wheels by way of a 6-speed manual transmission. The seller indicates the car has been serviced annually and all maintenance records are available dating back to the original purchase.
This sale will include owner’s manuals, the original window sticker, a toolkit, a spare tire, an air pump, and a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “This 2013 Porsche Boxster S marks the last year that Porsche manufactured the car with a proper 3.4 liter 6-cylinder engine with 315 hp and 266 ft-lbs. of torque. The car is also equipped with a proper 6-speed manual gearbox. The car has been adult owned and maintained by a fastidious Porsche Collector who owns over 20 vintage Porsches. THE CAR IS PERFECT IN EVERY WAY, I do mean perfect!... wash the car and you'll ruin it!”

What a curious way to run an auction, insulting bidders and emphasizing that both owners of this car are / were "well-healed". I guess I should leave my PCA Region; I have it on good authority that several of our Regional Board members are actually blue collar working types who view their Porsches as engineering marvels and terrific daily drivers, not status symbols.
I was going to bid aggressively but I probably need to show evidence of belonging to the Social Register. Plus, as a bidder on the "other" auction sites and a frequent visitor to PCA Mart, I likely wouldn't get approved by the seller anyway. Guess I will just keep shopping with the "trailer trash". SMH

@JDHEMPELDDS I completely agree with you JD. Here we have a simply fantastic "as new" Porsche and yet some just need to find something..... I list cars on this exceptional site to avoid "trailer" folk.

Can’t believe tires are such a worry …. Set a tires is not the end of the world ! 🤔
@TX_Saint,
I’d concur with the Michelin PS4s but also suggest Continental Extreme Contact or the OEM Pirelli P Zeros. In that order.
@TX_Saint Michelin PS4S all day long. Probably 2000? Check out pricing on tire rack if you are interested. New pilot sport 5 is due soon but not sure you can get a set yet
Since how high I bid is determined by what work needs to be done on the car, what does everyone recommend for brand/model tires to replace the 10 year old tires? How much will a set cost?

Good catch, no absolutely not. Never a child nor pet in the car either. Water is severely frowned upon:)
I noticed in the original sticker, that the Smoking Package was included. Has the car ever been smoked in? Does the interior smell of cigarette smoke?
Bid in the amount of $31,500
@DNH2 scroll uo about 2 inches
@jkw01 Scroll up about 2 inches
@jkw01 Yes, key(s), books, service records, car cover, window sticker, the car comes complete as delivered.
Are all the original keys included?
@porscheklaus where can I find the video of the car being driven?
Great color combination, GLWTA
@TX_Saint I just listened to it again, I think it is the holder the phone was attached to. Hard plastic...betcha-betcha
@TX_Saint you know, I have no idea. The car is dead quiet. I do double clutch on up and down shifts....just cause I can :) that perhaps...
Hello Klaus. I was watching your Youtube driving video. What is the crackling noise when you change gears?
I have a 2013 Boxster S myself...Guards Red over a Natural Carrera Red interior. I have owned 10 Porsches and it is undoubtedly one of the best cars I have ever owned. These cars have no faults. I would buy this car myself, but Wifey would leave me...she has put her foot down. These cars are phenomenal! Bid with confidence!
Additional content has been added to the gallery for this listing.
Good morning everyone
I've included photographs of both door panels as requested . Please let me know if you need anything else.
Bid in the amount of $31,000
@TX_Saint can do tomorrow. Be happy to. Another comment mentions full leather, this is also true. Again, please keep in mind, the car has been kept in a climate controlled environment its entire life. Both owners know each other, both are Porsche enthusiasts, the current owner helped spec the car for the origianl owner, both are well healed.....its been well looked after :) I'll add better door panel photos tomorrow. Thanks for the comments
@TX_Saint , always good to ask for but as far as I have been looking and hoping to get one (too long :) the door panel issues are with the standard trim (true maybe not 100% of the time) this one has the full leather interior.
Hello. A common problem on the 981 generation of Boxsters is the inside door panels separating from the door. Can you provide photos of the end of the door panels to check on their condition?
@Spokayman I stand corrected, thank you. Car manufacturers these days...leave stuff alone for a while fer cryin' out loud 😁
Bid in the amount of $29,810
@porscheklaus so glad they didn’t drill into the front bumper, it’s a little painful to see those.
@BK_Skol yes, tow hook compatable, I do have the plug and the original license plate bracket. Also porsche tech car cover and bra.
@porscheklaus maybe just a strategy to scare bidders away and get a lower price, but seems we have some characters watching this beautiful Boxster. Question on the front license plate bracket. Is that bracket one of the ones that attach to the tow hook mount? And if so, do you still have the plug?
Hi Klaus,
My OCD is kicking in and the statement you made above about 2013 being the last year for the 3.4 flat 6 is not technically correct. 2016 was the last year of this 981 generation with the sixes.
Probably you meant last “generation” with the 3.4 six.
Beautiful car.
@Azguy238 My goodness.... out of respect for those here at Pcar.... I'm going to bite my tounge.
@porscheklaus...you started it by trying to convince watchers of this site that 10 year old tire are OK to drive on.....
@Azguy238 c'mon guys... geez. The car is completely original, yes, inclusive of the tires. My goodness! At the risk of being even somewhat "snooty" please spend more of YOUR time on that other auction site.
It would be a crime to risk a beautiful car like this by driving on totally outdated tires!
@Gallahad true, everything on this car functions as designed. Thanks again.
@Stdenis25 can do. Gee, I'd hate to drive it again :) stay tuned.
I'm no "expert" but I would not drive in any spirited fashion on 10 year old tires. A trip to get Ice Cream on a sunny evening I'm sure they will be fine. But not driving one of these in a more spirited fashion seems like such a waste. They are NOT the stereotypical "hairdressers" car and deserve to be driven and pushed. I'm sure everything will operate as it should its a very fine example.
lovely car - some videos of the top operation and driving would be helpful before auction ends!
Bid in the amount of $15,000
Tire DOT Date Codes are 1013. They are original to the car. The car has been kept in a climate controlled enviorment its entire life. Yes, the tires have some age and some "experts" might suggest they be thrown out. I have no concerns personally about driving the car. If I were to track the car however, different story. It is also nice that the car has been kept completly original. Thanks for the comment.... it is a stunning car....
Beautiful car...love the GT silver/blue! What are the tire dates? Thanks!
I was fortunate enough to have attended the launch of the New Boxster in the Cananry Islands in 2012. First of all, Porsche puts on one hell of a launch ! More importantly THIS car has stolen my heart the moment I had the chance to drive one, it does everything exceedingly well, everything. Not lauding myself, I raced sportscars for nearly 30 years, taught high performance driving skills for the better part of 20. I'm a 911 guy at heart and will always love the aircooled cars best, but, this is a GREAT car, a truly fun car and it is in absolutely "as new" condition. No disappointments. Fly in, drive her home, anywhere, right now. I'm minutes from the airport. Happy bidding.
