The Boxster has two main design issues that are concerning, the RMS and the IMS engine meltdown problem. Obviously, the RMS issue is the most frequent lyissue mentioned.

It has other weak points that seem to come up frequently, including the ignition switch and an propensity to eat brake pads, rotors and tires.

Older Boxes had issues with the tops, plastic windows and cables.

If I recall correctly, the Box comes in the middle of the pack on the three year JD Powers survey.

Beyond that, we have no data.

Not a cheap car to fix, but there are not many of those anymore. A great car to drive, period.

Good luck.
