"loaners" by gregmatsumoto

I found an 07 Boxster that they advertised as $47000 with 5k miles. They said they would reduce it to $39900 and said it was a loaner. I suspect that also means it may have been a demo. I'm thinking that if it was a "loaner" folks would take it out and abuse it since it wasn't there's. What does a "loaner" really mean? Should I consider it or stay away?

A loaner is usually a car that is given to service customers, when their car is in the shop.. I get them when I take my wife's BMW in.. I don't drive their car any differently than I do my own.. (usually, it's just to work and back to the dealership).
 
It isn't like they give them to 18-yr.-old kids to drive... The person getting the car already has a Porsche.. And, if they are getting a Boxster as a loaner, then they likely drive one, already..
 
Could it be used as a demo, also? Possibly/probably... depending on the dealer.. Would I be worried about it? Not much on an '07 with factory warranty..
 
As a point of reference, my local dealer is giving $12K off loaner/demo Caymans and Boxsters.. Those have miles from 5K-7K, and sticker in the low-mid $50K range..
 
Good luck!!

removal of decal on sun visor by gregmatsumoto

Just got an 07 Boxster for $10k off msrp. seems to be the going deal with several dealers.
 
I thought the information on the visor was a paper sticker that would just pull off. But it appears to be a decal. I don't need the info., it's ugly, glares with it's white/yellow/black pictures and print.
 
My question is: Does anyone know how to remove the decal on the visor?

2003 Boxster good year?? + airbag question by lardag

I am considering purchasing a used Boxster. My research so far shows significant inprovements on the 2003 model, and even more improvements with the 2005 model. A friend of mine just mentioned that the 2003 model was not a good year. Any truth to that??
Also, can the passenger airbag be turned off so I can put my 8 year old daughter in the passenger seat??
 
I would appreciate any comments anyone would like to share
 
Thanks

new boxster for 15K off MSRP! by majormcf

I just bought a left over boxster with 72 miles for 15K off sticker. It was advertised for 10K off sticker on EBAY and I offered them 15K off and they took it. It is my 2nd boxster from this dealer and I got a good deal on one back in 99. This car has a ton of options I would never have ordered but at this price they are free. It is the only one I have seen with the 19in turbo 3675.00 wheels and it has Nav, xenons, multi functional wheel and loads more. Stickered for 60K and left the dealer on the road under 45K. No complaints here as I am seeing used boxsters going for about the same with a fraction of the options
