Default Rennfax needed in Scottsdale, AZ

I have a friend who is looking at a 2008 Boxster in Scottsdale at a BMW dealership and is wondering if it is in as good of shape as the salesman is touting. Also looking for PPI recommendations. Also wondering what needs to be looked at for this model. I'm sure he'll compensate for your time.
Here is the link to the ad. Thanks in advance.

Stuttgart Southwest is the shop I would recommend, but it isn't that close.


Address: 1844 E 6th St, Tempe, AZ 85281

Phone:(480) 968-6764


I am not that far from this dealership and I've actually purchased a car there previously, is there any way I can help?

Looking at the car now.

Front lip looks good no rash or curbing.
There aren't many rock chips to speak of on the hood or bumper.
Right headlight showing early signs of oxidizing.
Some dirt inside the lens of left headlight.
Front end POSSIBLY looks re sprayed.
No curbing on wheels but two paint chips on left rear.
Aftermarket head unit with Bluetooth speaker in the cluster.

Overall cosmetically I would be very happy with this car.

That is where the PO had the car serviced. Thanks for all the info. I have passed it on to my friend. Cheers

The owner is a leather crafter and not only drives the heck out of the car but also uses it in his photography of some of his work. You can see his work at www.leatherwerk.com.
