The best advertised car I've seen in a long time.

I would point out that tires age as well as wear out and I wouldn't be driving anywhere on 11 year old tires. Yes, I replaced perfectly good 8 year old tires with 1/2+ tread left with new ones just for safety reasons.

Thanks Mike, and thanks for all the resources you've posted online. Normally I'd agree with you on the tires, but honestly these don't show any sign of drying or cracking. I wonder if sitting in a garage really can wear a tire as much as sun, rain, humidity etc. The car literally hasn't seen the rain.

Very nice! GLWS.

I just turned 50,000 miles in my Boxster today! Every single one, mine.

What Mike says is true, even though your intuition tells you otherwise. Tires wear out/deteriorate even when they're sitting on a shelf. Tires wear out/deteriorate simply as a result of the passage of time.

They should be replaced either by you, before selling it, or by the new owner.

Good luck with the sale....it's a nice car!

Anyone interested in making an offer please contact me. I have an offer below the asking price and am tempted to accept it. If you own a Boxster that you can sell for $12k or so, it might be worth upgrading for an extra $6k to get one with all new parts. You can reach me at 806-543-6724.

I cannot remember when mine looked that nice. What a steal for someone.
