Comments from the seller

The 2016 Boxter Spyder was a limited release model utilising, for the first time, the 911 sourced 3.8L engine. With 276Kw and 240Nm it bought the roadster to new performance heights. Limited in Australia to only 28 examples they are very hard to find in this condition and like all limited release Porsche models are sought after. All cars look good in photos but few look better in real life. My car presents in close to new condition so please examine the photos particually, the driver's seat, driver's sill, driver's side carpet which are the areas subject to the harshest wear. All are as new, even the Alcantara covered steering wheel is as new. The rest of the car is in the same condition. I added this car to my collection about 3 years ago from a mature and fastidious owner and I rate the car as a 9.5 out of 10 example. Although this car has only covered 180ks this year it has just had its anual service. Offers considered.
