I looked at a cherry guards red 2000 Boxter S with 20K miles yesterday. Seemed kind of pricy at $32.0K
Any boxter owners out there with comments on 2000 year models, prices, other ? That was the first car I looked at, I'm shooting to purchase by May. Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated. |

We have had a couple of regular Boxsters and a couple of Boxster S's. The S is a huge upgrade. The HP difference is a big one but the brakes on the S are priceless. Big Breaks+Light Car=Stop Fast.
I logged quite a few miles in both cars at Sebring and the S was always 10-15MPH faster on the backstraight. If I can give you any advice, I would suggest that you try to find a Certified car. Extend the warranty. Also, keep in mind that 2000 was the first S. You may have more luck with a 2001. Just my $.02. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) |
