This Porsche Boxster drives and shifts excellently and has a very low mileage. Only 24027 km driven. From the looks of it, the mileage is original. The mileage records on the official documents show the following: 23100 KM in 2019 and 23700 KM in 2021. From this it can be concluded that the Porsche Boxster was driven only occasionally. There is an original Porsche hard-top mounted on the Porsche Boxster. The soft-top is in very good condition but needs to be adjusted due to the minimal use of the Porsche Boxster. There is also a collapsible Pioneer entertainment system installed as well as a unique spoiler package. The original Porsche 17-inch Turbo-look sport rims are fitted as an option.
On 09-09-1997 a license plate was issued in Japan. The year of construction may differ from that. Several recorded service checks have been performed. Maintenance and service booklets are present. This Porsche Boxster can be registered in the EU or other parts of the world.
Cars originating from Japan are known to be generally in very good condition. In addition, Japanese car owners are consistent in following up on maintenance intervals, as a result the cars are usually above average maintained. Two original keys with remote control are present. Favorable business additional tax rate.
