!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! with 39,464 miles for $32,490. Not only does it have air conditioning and the Bose stereo system, it also has heated and ventilated seating. I have no idea what’s going on here!

Seriously, this is pretty much a Boxster with an extra 10 hp, no door handles, and a cumbersome roof! Kind of misses the point of being the “Spyder,” but that price...

What would you do? Strip out the seats and other bits to lighten the car back down without paying the Porsche premium for removing shit (and getting to keep the parts), or leave it as is and have the best handling version of this gen Boxster but lose weather flexibility? Kind fails at being a convertible then, right?

What’s the best convertible for $32k?

Love the heated seats in my ‘02 Miata. Wish they were air conditioned.

That's no spyder, it's just a regular Boxster unfortunately. Still a good price at 32k though

That’s not a Boxster Spyder.....2011-12 Spyders are in the $50k range.

I absolutely love the way the current Z4 looks, why are we supposed to hate them again?

...and 2004 550 Special Edition ‘Spyders’ are around $20k. One of the few 986 Boxsters that might hold it’s value.

For $32k I’d rather have a low-mileage example of the most beautiful roadster ever made.

I apologize to every opponaut in advance, but I’d take the new Mini Cooper Convertible in Caribbean Aqua Metallic with the 1.5 3 cylinder turbo, 6 speed automatic, and a few options here and there for $32k.

I was going to say a CR; you might be able to get a decent one in blue or yellow, the only worthwhile colors (TM), for $32k, if you look and wait hard enough.

Apex Blue is glorious. I saw it in person for the first time last week.
