We are pleased to offer this 2016 Porsche 981 Boxster Spyder finished in White over a two-tone Black and Garnet Red interior. Debuted in 2015 as the lightest model in Porsche’s lineup, the 981 Boxster Spyder shares many components with the high-performance GT4 and features a distinctive look with its signature double-hump fairings and ducktail spoiler. This 2016 example was ordered with a 6-speed manual transmission along with an extended range fuel tank, Infotainment Package with BOSE Surround Sound System, 2-zone automatic climate control, Satin Black painted wheels and the Spyder Classic Interior Package. Kept up to date on routine annual maintenance, this Boxster Spyder is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Florida while showing just over 14k miles on the odometer.
This 981 comes finished in White and shares its front and rear fascias with the Cayman GT4. Distinguishing characteristics of the Spyder include lightweight aluminum doors, a ducktail rear spoiler, and an aluminum rear boot lid that conceals the manually operated canvas soft top. This example rides on factory 20” Boxster Spyder Design wheels finished in Satin Black with optional colored Porsche center crests. A scuff is noted along the underside of the passenger rocker panel and the Pirelli P Zero tires show date codes ranging from 2015-2020. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
Inside, this 981 highlights the Spyder Classic Interior Package which trims the cabin in a special combination of Garnet Red leather and Black Alcantara upholstery. Other options include the Infotainment Package with BOSE Surround Sound System, a reversing camera, Bluetooth mobile phone preparation, 2-zone automatic climate control, a wind deflector, and an extended range fuel tank. Minor signs of wear are depicted on the driver’s seat and the seller confirms all instruments and accessories to be fully functional.
The 981 Boxster Spyder borrows its 3.8L flat-six from the Cayman GT4 model. The largest and most powerful engine equipped for a Boxster at the time, this naturally aspirated flat-six delivers up to 375 HP and 309 lb.-ft of torque to the rear wheels by way of a 6-speed manual transmission. The Spyder is equipped as standard with a 20mm lowered Sport Suspension, Sport Exhaust, the Sport Chrono Package, and a limited-slip differential with Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV). Acceleration from 0-60 MPH is achieved in as little as 4.3 seconds with a top speed of 180 MPH. The seller reports annual maintenance to have been kept up to date per the manufacturer's recommended intervals and CARFAX shows the last documented service to have been completed in May of 2021 at 13,331 miles.
Accompanied by a clean title, this stunning Boxster Spyder is just waiting for a new owner to get behind the wheel and enjoy.

Hot Dang!
I have had several Porsche's including a Boxster S and when I drove a Spyder last year I vowed that I would add one of these to my garage.
Thanks to all who bid and commented.
@CAS hopefully someone will contact me soon to discuss finalizing the transaction. I look forward to meeting you.

For those asking about the convertible top photos and the keys/books I have uploaded them to the photo portal and waiting for the PCAR team to add them to the listing! Thank you again.
@jh986s Thanks for the added info and chiming in! It is indeed a perfectly balanced car. Have a great week!
@sidcrossley It is along the passenger rocker panel in front of the passenger rear wheel. If you look at the photos with the yellow lift arms in the photos towards the end you should be able to see it. You can't really see it unless you look under the car/bent over pretty far. Let me know if you still can't find it and I will try to send to you a different way.
I was looking for the scuff on the passenger side. I didn’t find it but in the picture it looks like there is some damage along the bottom edge. It may just be the photo. Can you comment?
This is #794 out of 830 MSRP was $92,135 March 16, 2016 build date. Beautiful car, great handling , perfect balance, great brakes, and unbelievable acceleration. Will never give mine up!!
@Richard356 Yes, I'll get a picture of those items for you asap. Both keys and manuals are included though. Thank you for your interest!
@matt707 Yes! I will see how I can upload additional photos. It is a black top, not sure how I missed uploading those.
