Your name says it all spine911not spineboxter
IMO you should keep the w210 until you get a good deal on a 2000 911.
beside how often do you see a w210 with full brabus pakage.

or buy a bigger house with 4 car garage in walnut,CA.

goodluck

I'm a HUGE porsche fan, though my family wont allow me to buy one EVER so i'm stuck on mercs till they all die[:D]. However, the boxters (2.7 & 3.2L) are a bit of a disappointment if you are a true porsche fan (seriously try racing it against your 320 and you'll see what i mean).

Stick to your TLC'd merc till you get a decent deal on a REAL porsche (911, 993, 996 etc).

Don't let the badge fool you, it's not a very good porsche, in fact it should have had a VW/audi/seat/skoda badge on it, at least then i could have justified buying one

Crsh2, Storm...Its really a hard call. Ive had a 92 911 Turbo before and i really missed the awesome handling/power of that Porsche. You are definitely right to say that a Boxster isnt a true bred Porsche...But, i guess if i do get a solid offer i might let her go...addtl pic...)[:D]

It's a sin if you let go of the Benz. KEEP THE BENZ!! Guys, please...don't let him do it!

Looks like you got your mind settled.

What color is your car?
sorry my screen is playing tricks on me. i dont know if its blue or black.

If you do get rid of it, how much are you asking for?

goodluck

spine911 · 07-07-2005, 09:05 PM

Color is Midnight Blue...IF i do sell it, ill be asking a little higher than Private Party KBB Value which i think is very reasonable since ived meticulously taken cared of this baby (ALL Records since 0 mi- current)+ Mods(Engine is Stock-never modified)...If i dont get a reasonable/decent offer ill definitely keep her. I know my baby is ready to go for another 60k mi(without the MAF/CPS/Window Regulators/Harmonic Balancer failure headaches[:D])
