History:
The car was built by Cervelli Technical Service here in Colorado in 2015.  It is a high-end build, originally set up for endurance racing.  It was run in WRL for a few events, then sold and used by a couple different owners for only DE events, then I purchased it in 2020 for SPB racing. 

In my 3+ years of ownership, I have extensively refined and refreshed the car, and have been running it in PCA SPB club racing, as well as some DE events.   

At every race I have this car at people walk up all the time in the paddock and say “This is one of the nicest/cleanest SPBs I have ever seen”.  The car is currently very well sorted and needs nothing.  Brand new rebuild on the transmission Sept 2023 by Gbox.

Build Information:
-Fully setup and legal for SPB.  PCA logbook from 2021-on.
-Weight on car with minimal fuel and me in the car at 200lbs wet is under 2668lbs.

-Stock 2.5L engine and 5-speed transmission per PCA rules
-Dyno shows 196HP (DynoJet) in March 2024 (Excellent for a healthy 2.5L Boxster engine).

The car needs nothing.  It is ready to go out and race.

I am selling b/c I am doing Arrive and Drive racing now and am taking my racing hobby in that direction for the foreseeable future.  This is a great car, tons of fun to race it, and a solid example of a good SPB, arguably one of the best in the country. 

The car is being sold through my friend and well known Porsche broker Joe Rothman @JR944 .  Broker is NO cost to buyer, just makes my life easier.
Feel free to contact me or Joe with questions via PM. 

Thanks for looking!!
