Comments
1997 Porsche Boxster 986 Manual – The Original Open-Top IconAt Axxle, we celebrate the marriage of heritage and driving passion—where every car tells a story, and every story begins with a dream. This 1997 Porsche Boxster 986 Manual is more than just a sports car; it’s the very first of its kind, a milestone in Porsche’s legacy, and today, it’s waiting for its next custodian.
Why the 986 Boxster?
The original Boxster wasn’t just Porsche’s saviour in the ’90s—it was a revelation. Light, balanced, and engineered with the DNA of its legendary siblings, it delivered 90% of the 911’s thrill at a fraction of the cost. Today, the early 986s represent exceptional value: a true Porsche experience without the speculative frenzy of later models. This isn’t just a weekend toy; it’s a future classic, ripe for enjoyment and appreciation.
