CAR OVERVIEW
Porsche Boxster 986 Manual 2001

A Porsche Boxster 986 finished in black with a red leather interior and matching red convertible roof, equipped with a desirable manual transmission. Showing 101,556 km and carrying an R grade, this is a structurally repaired vehicle that has seen notable use and requires careful assessment. The 986 Boxster is well regarded for its balanced chassis, mid-engine configuration and engaging driving experience, but this example presents as a used and previously repaired car rather than a collector grade car.

The R grade confirms prior accident repair or structural work, and the car generally presents as worn rather than purely cosmetic. Age related deterioration and blemishes are also noted.

Summary
This 2001 Porsche Boxster 986 in black with red leather and a red roof offers the appeal of a manual mid-engine roadster, but must be considered a structurally repaired and visibly used example.
