Hi, I've had a '99 Boxster BSX for the past three years and it was totaled. Details and pic's here:
http://986forum.com/forums/general-d...bad-today.html
Just bought a '99 996 with 110K miles. Clutch done at 90K and pads/rotors, a/c compressor, and water pump done within the last year. Car has a bit of deferred maintenance but I should be able to do most of it myself. Replaced coil packs and plugs over the weekend and have motor mounts and 60K tune parts on order to be delivered this week.
Wrecked Boxster BSX will be used to build out another chassis into a Spec Boxster race car.
Congrats on the car. Looks great. I especially like the wheels. '99's are the Best!
Welcome to the best 996 chat group on the interwebs. Show us some interior pics too. We love pics.
edit: just looked at the picture of your totaled boxter. Not a pretty sight. At least you weren't in the car at the time! Enjoy the 996.
Thank you! A new color to me but just as nice as Cobalt blue, in my opinion. Enjoy the rubber necking!
I believe these wheels are 2-piece. I had one refinished this winter, due to PO's severe curb rash, for $250. Came out beautifully! Can't wait to get them to replace my winter's in a wk or 2.
Welcome thstone. Sorry to hear about the Boxster, but looks like you've moved on into a sharp 996. Looks quite good as is, but there's a good chance some modding will follow.
