These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

This is my favorite Boxster..... and this one is gone at only 34,000 miles. I found that qualityporscheparts is parting it out then found the below photo on the net. What a loss. Hope the driver was alone and walked away. 04 Boxster S Limited EDITION LE SPYDER Porsche 986 Parting Out parts car 35,472 | eBay

POST 2Original post

A lot of cows gave their lives for that interior

POST 3Original post

I knew I felt a disturbance in the force... this is really sad, I have the same model and it's weird seeing it destroyed. OTOH, I could use some of those parts as backups

POST 4Original post

Looks like it was a lurid skid (front wheel rim peeled off) with a side impact into a pole base or bridge support, etc. My friend's 914 looked simliar after he slid it into a concrete bridge siding. Hope everyone made it out ok.

POST 6Original post

Sweet shifter knob for someone. Dye it black. Gauge cluster is S model in black face with chrome rings. & computer. Several cool upgrades for an S. 987 air intake box and TB.

POST 7Original post

Ouch. Gotta think somebody got ****************ed up in that crash.

POST 8 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Quotes source post: 535542

The shifter knob is listed for $200. You could get it for $150. The cluster is listed for $400, you could get it for $300. The SE tail pipe is listed for $100, you could get it for $75. It does have some scratches like most used ones do. Wasn't there a member here looking for one?

here is one already in black for anyone interested 2000 2001 2002 2003 2004 Porsche 911 996 Boxster perforated 6 speed shifter knob

POST 10Original post

The SE interiors make stock interiors look downright pedestrian. And my 97 has the full leather trim option. Whatever somebody hit, that was a rude, fast, abrupt stop. I would not want to get twisted over the center console like that. Probably break a rib or two.

POST 11Original post

I know it s a long shot given this post is now 8 years old. Just curious if anyone knows the VIN on anniversary car 0227? I have a registry of 550 SEs and would like to add the VIN on this plate.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
