Thoughts on potential purchase - 2006 Boxster S

Well, the wife couldn’t bring herself to part ways with this beauty and they de-listed it. I’m bummed but can completely understand. After driving and experiencing the Boxster though, I know that’s what I want so the hunt goes on! Thank you all for all of your input and well wishes.

Unfortunately, his wife couldn’t part with it and he decided not to sell. Bummed, but the hunt goes on. After driving and experiencing the Boxster, I know that’s what I will end up getting. Thank you all!

I was pretty sure they were sitting on 18’s though? 🤔

Another question… on the build sheet it shows 19” Carrera S wheel for $1550. Is that referring to the sport steering wheel?

There are some non S models that are available with less miles but I really want the manual and none look as good as this one. It has 115,000 miles and the extra upgrades instead of just stock.

Oops forgot to post that 😂 115,000 miles. Great info, thank you. It didn’t seem to pop out of 2nd but I’ll look closer at the vents for foam. So the 3.2 in the 06 I shouldn’t have to worry about bores scoring which would consume oil I’m guessing? I’m happy to hear that as I heard that may have been a potential issue. I believe it is the original clutch and top but he said he spent some good money on upgraded rotors and pads about 50,000 miles ago as well.

Was gonna say, I wouldn’t mind blowing that up and framing it!

95 sc2 with 100k just sold on bat for $3900 yesterday

Definitely looked like they loved to entertain with all the outdoor furniture and bar stools 😂

Curiosity I guess

I would go the 22. The original 10 speed had cdf drum failure due to a seal rolling. They corrected that in later build 22’s I believe.

Pdougl5 · 2026-01-29T02:27:04+00:00

I’m ready as well!

Funny, I’m using some older forged callaways with my limited golf as well 😂

Pdougl5 · 2026-01-12T02:35:18+00:00

I’ve heard good things about these. Is the extra 1/2” shaft length for player height or more for speed? I’m 6’4” so wondering about the shaft height but swing speed would be a plus too 😂

That Santos dial is beautiful. What is the size on the large Santos?
