Boxster S 550

A Clift

Can anyone offer me any advice/details about the above limited edition model of the S? I saw one for sale the other day, which looked interesting. The seller claimed it had a slight horse power advantage over the standard S. I've booked a test drive and valuation on my car.

Also any recommendations on specialists who are interested in offering fair prices on Boxsters?
 
yes an 8bhp increase; GT silver with either cocoa or dark grey natural leather, seal wheels (not all but one of the few options) different exhaust config, short-shift, limited edition plate. I felt that the interior although 986 style was very well put together, a lot of double stitching etc etc and the car was slightly louder (nice louder) than the 986S - a search will reveal the full differences - very nice car

Hi
I indeed had one ...nice car mine was a Tip with dark interior,it has a slightly more bhp not that you will notice and a lot of extras put on them and there are a few about around the £30 K mark a fair price but would not go any more than this as most will no longer be covered with Porsche warranty,Good luck if you want any more info email me.
