Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The only time I ever get concerned about IMS is when I come to this forum and of the three forums I visit daily this is the only one that seems obsessed by it. Some forums seem to draw all the negative problems with a particular piece of equipment and all the detractors. I own a Leica M8 camera, made in Germany, and of the three forums for Leica cameras I belong to one of them is like this forum is with IMS. If you went to that forum before you bought a Leica M8 you would never buy one, yet the other two forums never, or rarely, raise a fuss about the camera. I've owned my M8 for three years and not once had a problem with it. As an observation from a relatively new Boxster owner, and member of this forum, there appears to be a lot of negativity about the Boxster from a few members but their input seems to carry a lot of weight here. Perhaps if the, at times, overly sensational posts where taken in context of the poster the issue would carry less importance than it does and could be viewed in the overall context of Boxster mechanical history which is one of reliability and low cost of upkeep. The fact that the Boxster is the best value for a sports roadster says something about the car.
