Re: Recommendations My First Boxster
A few things to consider before buying this car.

- since it looks like the body hasn't been looked after particularly well, I'd be VERY concerned that it wasn looked after mechanically. As Grant pointed out, that could end up being expensive.

- living in South Florida, you don't know how lucky you are when it comes to knowledgeable Porsche mechanics, you've got Pedro, one of the absolute best anywhere, close to you.

- I'd recommend taking it to Pedro to have a PPI (Pre Purchase Instpection) done BEFORE you buy the car. It could save you a lot of headaches and money down the road.

There are lots of really well maintained used Boxsters out there, so don't settle for just anything.

Good luck. Once you drive a Boxster, you'll know just how special these cars are. You'll love it.
