Vehicle Description
2011 Porsche Boxster Spyder
• VIN WP0CB2A85BS745471
• Completed May of 2010
• Only 12,156 miles
Weighing only 2811 pounds, the 2011 Porsche Boxster Spyder is the
lightest production car that Porsche has produced in decades. This
mid-engined roadster represents the true, purist form of the sports
car - agile, powerful, open, and efficient. The maximum output is
320 horsepower with 273 lb.-ft torque. The combination of 10 more
horsepower and 176 pounds less weight than the award-winning
Boxster S, plus an all-new sports suspension that lowers the
Boxster Spyder 20 mm, a lower center of gravity, a standard
limited-slip differential, and exclusive wheels provides the kind
of driving dynamics that back up the unique look. Aluminum door
skins and lightweight interior door panels from the 911 GT3 RS
contribute to the weight reduction.
Three (3) owners, all original paintwork which is in stunning
condition with excellent gaps. Exterior factory equipment includes
a rear spoiler, roll bar, wind deflector, dual exhaust, silver
quarter panel intakes, and Porsche side script. Weight-saving
measures on the Boxster Spyder included aluminum door panels and a
removable bikini-style soft top that stows beneath an aluminum
double-hump rear clamshell. The upholstery is immaculate with
Alcantara carbon sports seats. The factory 19? lightweight wheels
are in excellent condition with Hankook Ventus V12 EVO 2 tires.
The original purchase invoice on file indicates delivery by Motor
Werks of Barrington Porsche on June 16, 2010, with a base price of
$65,570.00. Finished in Carrara White over Black Alcantara
upholstery. This configuration was optioned from the factory with
A/C Delete, Radio Delete, Floor Mats, Fabric Door Opening Loop,
Manual Two Panel Roof, Soft Top in Black, and a 7-speed Porsche
Doppelkupplung transmission.
The current owner purchased this Spyder in 2018 with 7,011 miles
from European Collectibles. Schneider Autohaus in Santa Barbara,
California performed a 10K mile maintenance which included
replacing the engine oil and filter, cabin filter, installing a
sealing ring, and checking all the fluids. Mechanically, the
Boxster Spyder features a 3.4-liter six-cylinder engine paired to a
7-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission, which produces a 0-60 time of
just 4 seconds. A true, genuine, roadster sports car destined only
to appreciate, this Boxster is a great valued opportunity.
History
Hard to believe but the Boxster line is 25 years old now. When the
car launched in 1997, reviews were positive and constantly improved
as this car never seemed to disappoint with regards to looks and
drivability. With their mid-engine layout and nearly perfect 50/50
weight distribution, it quickly developed a dedicated
following.
The 2011 Boxster Spyder was heavily praised by the automotive press
upon its release. Road and Track referred to it as "the perfect
sports car." and described its skidpad and figure 8 test results as
"Ferrari 458 Italia numbers for less than a third of the price."
Car & Driver praised the acceleration, reaching from 0-60 in an
incredibly quick 4 seconds.
