Best source to find a Boxster?
I'm looking to upgrade from my 951 to a Boxster... 2000-2002 year range. I'm not finding too many around this site or the "other" site...
Can anyone point me in the right direction? I'll be financing about half of it, so a dealer might be the best place to make that part of it a little easier. I'm in Chicago, the best source I've found around here is Bentley of Downers Grove... Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks |

I just purchased my '02 Boxster S off eBay; many choices and range of prices. Very simple transaction, though I paid cash. Find a lender that will give you a pre-approved auto loan. You don't want to bid on eBay without the loan in place first. Most "consumer finance" companies will give you a pre-approved loan and a blank check to write when you identify a car. Good luck.

That's waht I've been finding... that ebay is a good source. Better than the dealers. Looks like a few thousand less than what most dealers are asking. I'm going to keep my eyes open and try and find one by fall.
Good advise about the pre-approval too! Thanks |

If your credit is good, etc. Capital One Auto Finance (www.capitaloneautofinance.com) will approve you for an amount and send you a blank check so you can shop at your whim. It lasts for 45 days, but can be extended with one phone call.
FWIW.
