Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Looks just like mine when I bought it three years ago. I have the same wheels and really like them as I don't like the turbo twists very much. Your wheels are not unlike a Foose custom or even are reminiscent of the American Racing mags on your Mustang. Have fun and prepare yourself for a flood of suggestions on how you can modify it.
AKL
Nice! Car looks like it's in good shape. I'm loving the rims, they're a beauty.
Is your rear spoiler missing? You should get a Turbo style wing to replace it
!
Oops, that was a suggestion to modify, wasn't it?
umm yes the spoiler is missing... long story short i broke a bolt off in the driver side spoiler pillar so i have the whole spoiler getup removed and i have a part coming in from oklahoma dismanters to fix it. i wasnt sure if anyone would pick up on it.
jax im very jealous of you... im in monterey and noone around here wants to be helpful for a decent price. i flat out told the monterey dealership i can order the part from pelican for 110 and he quotes me for 170... i was like "are you serious?"
thanks for all the comments by the way. and are my rims different than many other boxsters out there? i thought they were the common everyday ones (as common and everyday as a porsche can be i suppose)
Thanks for the complement... jackass lol. I may not be able to hang in the twisties, but at least I can do a burnout
(which that and straightline performance is all the car will ever be good for.) The rims on the car are stock "BULLITT" rims. Nothing special, but I think it goes well with the color combo.
ill take a gander when i get home. how common are the rims that we have. i thought they were quite common. but i do like them alot. i will be painting them in the near future hopefully.
I think those rims should be quite common for MY01.
From one option code site I found (
http://industryfigure.com/berkeley/Porsche/Options/OptionsMatrix.htm
), it looks like the standard wheel is 16":
Cast Light Alloy Wheels "Boxster Design":
6J X 16 with 205/55 ZR 16 tires, Front
7J X 16 with 225/50 ZR 16 tires, Rear
Including anti-theft device
Apparently there were options for 17" and 18" (mine are 17's).
Just to confuse things, the optional 17's in the above site are Code 391, which a 2nd site (
http://www.kindel.com/Porsche/options.asp
) says is for "stone guard foil", and code 232 is for the 17's. Sheesh! I have both codes on my option list, but I don't know what the heck the stone guard foil is for. If it's for the rad inlets, there's nothing there now. If only I could have afforded a new Boxster in 01, there wouldn't be this confusion!
i think it is artic silver. unfortunately the sticker under the hood got removed... damnit. anyways it isnt seal grey... 95% certain
the reason the stang is in the pics is cus me and my buddy went out to take pics and well cars look good together
