Yes, the above is that happens when you start searching Autotrader and Cars.Com.

God have you ever been on the Porsche forum? This is the nicest place in the world in comparison.

It's good to know a car whose MSRP is twice that of the twins is a better driver.

Seriously though, congrats. I have no doubt it must be awesome, but it's not necessarily a realistic option for many of us. Even allowing it's current used value being about the same as a new 86, that doesn't take into account future cost of ownership.

What year is that? is it 06-09 987.1 or 09-11 987.2? cause if latter that's a helll of a car congrats!

Yes I'm on one for several years now... it's basically a bunch of nice old men that are helpful and sit around posting about their cars on a forum, where they answer almost instantanously as if they're omnipotent car guru with bushy beards, porsche forums is so nice and hmm the description of the old car guru sounds... familar.. WAIT A SECOND...diddly...

Will be selling the FRS. If a buyer comes forward quickly, I would sell private party, but it will more likely be heading to CarMax.

LOL You ruined it! He was supposed to go to the Porsche forum expecting to see all sorts of stuff worse than here (or the NASIOC shitshow).


I never signed up but spent some time on the PCA forum when I was considering one. Great place for info but boring as hell!

2011 is 987.2. I'm fully aware of the issues with the 987.1 cars, and only considered .2 cars. Actually, I only considered 2010+ so there would be no risk of getting an early '09 that may have still had the IMS issue.

I doubt if that was real risk, but I only looked at '10+ cars.

I used to have a 987.2 Boxster S and it was definitely a great car, especially that latter generation with the updated engine. Congrats and enjoy!

Here was mine... still miss it sometimes
