For Sale: 2001 Porsche Boxster in Concord, North Carolina

STK 2783 2001 Porsche Boxster

Porsche's Boxster was introduced in 1997, a contender in the roadster market for the German automaker. Styling harked back to the original Porsche 356 and the rare 550 Spyder of the 1950s. The 'Boxster' name blended the design of the horizontally opposed engine (boxers) and the body style of the car (roadster). Unlike many classic roadsters, the Boxster was wonderfully stable and reliable - ready to give it's all. The mid-engine 2.7L aluminum flat-six outputs 217bhp and 192lb/ft of torque. It is simply a smaller version of the 3.4L Carrera powerplant that is naturally aspired and water-cooled. Intake utilizes Sequential Multi-Port Injection in conjunction with Variocam technology and a DOHC 24-valve configuration. The engine is backed by a five-speed manual RWD transaxle w/traction control. Steering is power-assisted and 4-wheel ABS power disc brakes w/298mm ventilated discs provide stopping power. The front-end appearance is similar to that of the 911 coupe, but farther back the Boxster has its own assertive profile based on the mid-engine configuration. The Porsche's original Lapis Blue Metallic finish is in very good condition and is accented by 18" alloy wheels. The blue power-operated fabric top has a factory liner and plastic rear window. A power rear spoiler and front and rear fog lights are standard. Two occupants enjoy factory leather-trimmed, body-hugging bucket seats with power recliner (driver). An optional wind deflector mounts behind the seats to reduce turbulence when the top is down. The nearly vertical steering wheel telescopes in and out. Standard equipment includes climate-control air conditioning, dual airbags, power mirrors, power windows/locks, cruise, an AM/FM stereo system and theft-deterrent system. This Porsche Boxster is a safe, responsive performance roadster that should move very quickly. ALL VEHICLES SOLD "AS IS".
