Will This New Oil Pan Fix Our CHEAP "Blown Engine" Porsche Boxster 981?

  • Today we fix our cheap Porsche Boxster 981 that insurance quoted as needing a new engine (for $28,000). All we had to replace was the oil pan. We opted to go with an upgraded billet deep sump oil pan from RR racing. We also go for the first drive to see if the repairs worked. Hopefully the engine doesn't blow up like on our cheap flooded Maserati Granturismo.

    Anybody who puts down the Boxster or Cayman have no idea what they are talking about. I have a 911 AND a Boxster. Truth being told, the Boxster is just as quick around the track and is more fun in the Tx Hill country twisty roads. Once you drive one (IF you are a real driver) you will always sing the praises of the car. One of the best handling cars Porsche has ever built. Keep up the Boxster content. It is awesome.

    A previous owner of several Porsches starting with a '74 914 in the late '70's in college, a 924 and 944 in the 80's, then taking an over 25 year break from Porsche, and getting back into to them with the 986 Boxster and now a newer 718 982 Boxster. The Boxster's are great spirited cars that handle amazingly, and are just plain fun to drive with the top down. Keep the Porsche content coming JR, very enjoyable to watch!! You are one lucky guy to snag a deal like that on that gorgeous like-new 981.

    I'm definitely in agreement with all your comments in this video! I've got a '14 981 Cayman and picked it up in 2016 as a CPO with only 5,000 miles! It has undoubtedly been the best bang for the buck car I've ever purchased. The combination of styling, comfort, performance, and that sweet flat 6 sound can not be beaten by any car - period. On top of that, it cruises the interstate at 75 mph and gets about 33 mpg! It's practically an econocar! LOL!

    I don't own a Boxster or a Porsche and likely never will (except for perhaps a Macon for my wife) but I love the Boxster content - it's interesting to see the wide swing in values across the years and what great "scores" you're getting at auction (with all the risk and work that goes in to them). Worth watching for sure - even if you do get a bit over excited / over acting - it's great content nonetheless!

  • @MrRoyck10
    @MrRoyck10 Рік тому +1

    PDK is not the best gearbox in particular for those who like driving, however for those who think that speed / bhp defines a sports car like PDK, driving a sports car is about involvement and feel using the 3rd pedal to modulate the car whilst exploiting the engine rather than depending on a computer to do the driving whilst you gloat at your driving. Manual is the collectors choice.

    • @glenostick3979

    On my 3rd Boxster.
    Had all 3 versions of the Boxster so far.
    Loved my 987S (Sold to my nephew..... again. He also bought my 986)
    Loved these cars!
    Boxster is that fun, fast, and incredible handling car!
    And there is a big difference between 986 S (or non S) compared to the 987.
    It's like they (Porsche) decided to get closer to his big brother 911.
    And then the 981 S, which I just bought is another leep in technology.
    The PDK,
    300 plus horses
    And suspension selection (that also controls throttle response and exhaust notes)
    You have sport or track.
    I highly doubt that I'll be tracking her anytime soon. 😊
    I was going to buy a 2016 911.
    A guy beat me to it.... sort of. Dishing out $$$ for a third car in northern Michigan??
    The other guy bought the 911 and found out he was turning in a 2014 981 S.
    Sold.

    @scottshand8559 Рік тому

    Those are great cars right off the lot, many people feel the better investment is a base model, it leave any mods/upgrades up to you. Also I would let the PDK do the shifting, it's likely better than you (or me)! With the right tires that car will provide all the performance you can use on a public road. If someone wants to hit the track then they should look at another model...and write a bigger check...maybe a much bigger check.

    I suspect that the rocks in the exhaust is an attempt by someone to get a break on the price at the auction by saying it was vandalism. The hole in the floor from the inside out could have been an attempt to let the flood water out.
    My niece had a Boxter and it needed some relatively minor motor work, and the dealer told her that "we don't repair those motors. We just put in a new one." She traded it in for a Land Rover.
