| Video Discription | The 986 Porsche Boxster was presented at the Detroit Auto Show in 1993! With the introduction of this new sports car model Porsche would go back to its roots of a mid-engine sports car initially released in the 50's with the 550 Spyder and again in the 70's with the 914! With sales dramatically declining from 50,000 units in 1986 to just under 14,000 in 1993...Porsche decided it was time to release a new model the Boxster to help jumpstart sales with an entry level Porsche. With the help of Toyota consultants Porsche was able to streamline its manufacturing going to "Just In Time" production method which helped eliminate excess part production with parts being available when they were needed on the assembly line! This Boxster shares many components with the 996 911 as well also helping to reduce total costs for both models. The Boxster was an instant success taking the throne as top seller from 1996 to 2003 (was not released in the U.S until model year 1997) helping push Porsche out of its sales slump! The first year in the U.S. the Boxster helped Porsche almost be able to double its sales up to just over 13,000 units. With the demand so high Porsche had to open a second manufacturing plant in Finland (the car in the video was produced at the Finland plant). Although the Boxster was an instant success it did come with a handful of issues.. water pumps, horns quite working, porous engine blocks, air oil separators and of course the infamous IMS bearing issue. No more than 10% of the cars were affected by this issue! A 986 Boxster is a tremendous value for the money: -Incredibly fun to drive -Handle like the car is on rails -Built to last as long ad they have been taken care of - Relatively inexpensive as the model has bottomed out of its depreciation -ITS A PORSCHE!! I highly recommend the 986 Boxster if someone is looking take a dive into the Porsche market! Be sure to get a PPI before purchasing a car as many cars can look good on the outside but are not necessarily mechanically sound!

Disclaimer: By no means are the issues stated in the video a fix or correct diagnosis....please have your local mechanic inspect the vehicle for issues you are experiencing. The claims made are not fact but opinion based on what I have seen in my time with Porsche. Porsches should be inspected every year or 10k miles whichever comes first by a professional. |
