A Porsche for under $500?! This will probably make for the cheapest Porsche build ever! We bought this 2001 Porsche Boxster sight unseen at SALVAGE auction in California listed as a NON running car. Will we be able to bring this car back to life and get it started? This will be an awesome crashed car to rebuild! Enjoy!

Give it an oil change and inspect the oil for metal debris, the IMS bearing can fail, checking oil will help to see if the bearing might be failing/disintegrating. You don’t want the bearing to fail as this will mean engine out and a rebuild, just my 2 cents as Boxster owner

I own a 99 Boxster. I'm the second owner and have had it for about 10 years. And yes I've let the battery die before and never could find the cable to pop the trunk. I moved the cable to one of the vents. I ended up jumping the car through the cigarette lighter to get it open. And never change the exhaust on those, you'll lose that amazing midrange sound it makes.

@jackkost967 5 жыл бұрын

It's damn near impossible to make a 986 or even a 987 sound like a gt3. Although they're both flat 6 engines, that's where the similarities stop. The GT3's have larger displacement motors, a dry sump oil-system, and are the "Mezger" engine which is a different engine than the M96 (don't know sub variant) that comes in the boxster. A straight piped boxster sounds a little ricey and doesn't have the howl that a gt3 has. And I'm not dissing you, I just thought I'd voice my knowledge (even if it may be wrong). But hell yeah, MAKE THAT SHIT LOUDER!!!!
