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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

After seeing our much loved Atlantis Blue E36 328i Sport last week it obviously had to be replaced Looked at several E46 330Ci cabs and was disappointed by them all, came very close to a nice M3 but then I drove a Boxster S and was hooked 2001 car, not many options but those it has are desirable (in my book anyway) - namely the factory sports exhaust and 18" split rims (which are totally unmarked) Few little things need to be sorted but mechanically it appears perfect - just a couple of scratched pieces of trim need replacing Hopefully this is a time and effort project rather than a big money project and makes a nice driveway companion for my tweaked Alfa GTV V6

POST 2Original post

Looks great and in superb condition...very nice.

POST 3Original post

I'm not sure if that's a project - it looks too good for that! The only thing I can see obvious is the driver's seat could do with some tlc. That said there's always something do to to improve things.

POST 4Original post

I suggest that you get Sports Seats, then see if you can improve the exhaust and induction. You might want to get one of the hard tops. Then get a set of ceramic brakes. If this is a REAL project, could you get a 996 3.4 engine into it?

POST 5Original post

996 engine in a boxster s??? Won't it blow before you could even get it started? 996 3.4 engine blocks are great...for coffee tables with a sheet of glass on top! Even then they probably let go.

POST 6 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post
