2003 Porsche

Description

It's amazing to think you can own a well-maintained and low-mileage Porsche drop top for less than the price of an economy car. This 2003 Porsche Boxster S is a modern classic because it really brought Porsche back to its roots of building mid-engined cars with a lot of guts. So it's a speedy machine that is modern enough to be the envy of current roadsters.

The shape has Porsche blood running through its veins, so you'll hardly be able to resist the car's siren call to get in, turn the key, drop the top, and head out in search of twisting pavement. 2003 is a wonderful year to choose because this has some subtle body modifications that will keep this car distinctive for years to come. The factory Midnight Blue Metallic is one of those perfect sophisticated colors that isn't too outlandish but has the proper amount of luster to make sure it looks fantastic on sunny days. It gives this sports roadster an elegant look that's complemented by the pricey optional 18-inch alloy wheels. Fit and finish are excellent from the factory, because after all, this is a precision German machine. Even better is that it shows low mileage (averaging less than 4,400 miles annually) so you know it was used more as a cherished weekend toy than a bumper-to-bumper commute machine.

Anyone who has driven a Porsche over the past two decades will feel right at home behind the wheel of this Boxster. The handsome gray leather bucket seats hold you in place on the twisty roads without being constrictive. The gauges are big and easy to read, and because it's a true Porsche, the tachometer sits boldly in the center to remind you that the driving experience is this roadster's top priority. Like any good premium car, it comes loaded with power windows, power locks, keyless entry, AM/FM/CD stereo, cruise control, and power seats. Because this is a modern classic there are also great safety features like ABS, dual front airbags, and side airbags. Two trunks, one up front, and one behind the mid-mounted engine, provide a far superior luggage capacity than most other super sleek roadsters. There's a power convertible top to button everything up on rainy days, but the ice-cold air conditioning means you can keep the roof down any dry day you want.

It's important to recognize the little "S" on this car because it makes a huge difference. Porsche upgraded the Boxster S to a 3.2-liter flat-six, which was worth an 15% jump in horsepower. Plus, the 2003 model's 258 hp total was 5 hp more than the previous year. Its distinctive boxer motor sound and performance exhaust will have you downshifting the Tiptronic five-speed automatic under every overpass. This engine fires up easily, which is another hallmark of German precision. The feeling on the road is an experience you'll love thanks to the well-balanced mid-engine design and Porsche's fully independent performance suspension. Plus, bright red calipers highlight the four-wheel disc brakes, and expensive Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires cap off this superior handling package.

This Boxster S is an affordable indulgence that will keep its exceptional quality for years to come. The precision German roadster even comes with the original window sticker. It's time to grab a piece of the good life at a great price. Call today!!!
