In the early-1990s, Porsche was in rather dire financial straits. Sales had been slow due to an economic downturn and manufacturing prices were extremely high due to outdated techniques at the factory. The brand knew that if it was going to survive, it would need a lower priced car that they could produce in volume, that would also share parts with the forthcoming 911. The Porsche Boxster concept debuted at the 1993 North American International Auto Show and it caused a massive stir. With a name derived from combining Boxer – a nickname for the flat engine – and Roadster – the only bodystyle the car would be offered in, the production Boxster launched in 1996 with a design that was not largely changed from the original concept. The reception upon its release was just as enthusiastic as when the concept was first shown and it quickly turned Porsche’s fortunes around thanks to its simpler production methods and lower base price. This 2002 Porsche 986 Boxster S is the perfect entry point to Porsche ownership for an enthusiast who has always wanted a car from the famed German manufacturer. Finished in beautiful and rare Cobalt Blue Metallic, this Boxster S shows just over 86,000 miles and was optioned with a 6-speed manual gearbox. The “S” received numerous updates over the standard Boxster including an extra 700cc of displacement (totalling 3.2 liters), the 6th gear in the transmission, twin-exit exhausts, stiffer anti-roll bars, red brake calipers white faced gauges and more. The interior on this car is wrapped in Graphite Gray partial leather, and a Bose high-end stereo is fitted from the factory. The clean CarFax shows 3 owners from new and this car received a recent servicing at Dobson Stuttgart that included a full set of new Continental Extreme Contact Tires and a fresh convertible top. The 986 generation Boxster is a tremendously underrated car from the driver’s seat, offering lively steering, neutral handling and enough power to have fun, without getting yourself into serious trouble. Offered at an extremely appealing price, this Boxster S is a great first Porsche, or an addition to your Porsche collection that you won’t have qualms about using every day. Key Features – 3.2-Liter Flat 6 -247 Horsepower – 6-Speed Manual Transmission – 86,000 Miles Shown – Cobalt Blue Over Graphite Gray – Bose Stereo – New Continental Tires – Recent Servicing

The Cayenne is Porsche’s only full-size SUV. While unorthodox for the automaker, the SUV manages to maintain a sporty nature through dynamic suspension tuning and powerful powertrains. For 2010, the Cayenne was offered in a base V6 model, the Cayenne S and GTS, a Turbo and Turbo S models, with a dizzying array of available options. 

Exterior – The Cayenne shares a strong resemblance to its Porsche-family relatives. 

• Power liftgate
• Power/heated side mirrors
• Rain-sensing wipers with heated washer jets

Interior – The Cayenne’s five-seat interior carries over mostly unchanged for 2010. Like other Porsches, the Cayenne features the make’s signature instrument cluster and a sporty three-spoke steering wheel.

• Leather upholstery
• Steering-wheel-mounted cruise and audio controls
• Leather-bound dash and center console

Under the Hood – The Cayenne’s base engine is a V-6

• Standard full-time all-wheel drive
• 290-horsepower, 3.6-liter V-6 with 273 pounds-feet of torque (base)

Safety

• Side-impact airbags
• Side curtain airbags
• Antilock brakes with brake assist
• Electronic stability system
• Traction control

This is a prime example of a well-maintained, low-mileage Porsche Cayenne. With documented service records dating back to 2016, an excellent recent inspection and oil service, great tires and in excellent condition overall, you’d be hard pressed to find a base Cayenne in better condition.

When Porsche first debuted the 901 (later known as the 911), brand enthusiasts were disappointed by the heavier engine and higher price tag when compared to the outgoing 356. In listening to these critiques, Porsche developed a middle ground, producing a 911 that was powered by a variant of the flat-4 found in the 356, which could be offered at a significantly lower price point. Built between 1965 and 1969, the 912 became known for its tremendous efficiency and neutral handling thanks to the smaller engine sitting more inboard in the chassis.

This 1968 Porsche 912 is finished in what is arguably one of the best colors of the era – Irish Green. Purchased from LeMans class-winning driver Dick Barbour, this 912 retains a largely original appearance on the exterior but benefits from a number of modifications under the skin that make it truly great to drive. A factory 5-speed manual gearbox gives you a much more enjoyable driving experience than the standard 4-speed that came in these cars, and allows for both improved acceleration in town and more relaxed highway cruising.

While under the care of Dick Barbour, the 1600cc flat-4 was rebuilt by Graham Everett Motorsport with big-bore pistons that increase displacement to 1,7500cc. Graham Everett was the head mechanic for JLP Racing and numerous other Porsche endurance race cars through the 1970s and 1980s and now runs a successful engine building service out of a garage at Road Atlanta. This rebuild was completed in September of 2020 and has seen roughly 3,500 miles of use since its completion and pulls strong through the revs while sounding appropriately aggressive.

Under current ownership, the car has had considerable work carried out at Dobson Stuttgart including suspension work, the installation of custom GTS Classic bucket seats up front with seat belts, new Vredestein radial tires and European style headlights. The result is a car that is truly a joy to toss around on your favorite back road, with enough power to rival some of its flat-6 counterparts from the era. This car isn’t going to win any stoplight drag races, but whenever the road gets twisty, it will put a smile on your face and has more than enough power to have a ton of fun.
