If I were you, I'd get the car picked over very very carefully every two months by an experienced Boxster mechanic (not just a porsche guy, but someone who knows boxsters) to drain that warranty for all its worth.

100k boxsters are really expensive to keep running. I know. I own one.
Now that I paid off the car, I was thinking about mods...now, I serviced my car big time and all that...when can I expect the next failure? *lol* half funny, half serious, my 2001 Boxster has 57,000 miles...and I even had all leaks addressed. Tell us all about your experience in your car. My car? I would not trade it for the world, esp. given that I put all the $ into it...just curious
BTW, I put in a half quart of oil after 500 miles, is this normal? what is the normal time between adding oil? Thanks
