Suspension parts and emissions stuff wear out on cars of this age. Boxsters have a lot of plastic parts in them too that wear out far earlier than the Porsches of the 70's.
They're built by Germans, but they're not bullet proof like a German tank by any means.
Some guys on this board swear their boxsters are bullet proof, but I always see that they're driving a very low mileage car, a very new car (1-2 years old) or one that the previous owner dumped a bunch of money into to fix up.
Throwing caution to the wind and buying that 97 may possibly be the most expensive car you have ever purchased.
Now if the dealer throws in a bumper to bumper warranty for 3 years or 25k beyond what the car has on it now and the warranty doesn't have all sorts of exclusions, it's worth a second look.
Check my web site for tips for purchasing a used boxster.
