For one thing at least, the Porsche Boxster has only been in existance for 8 years, dating back to the 1997 model. Most drivers do not put 20,000 miles a year on their Boxster, so the chances of hearing about someone hitting 100,000 miles is not that common....I would even go so far to say that quite a few people do not use their cars as daily drivers either. There are probably more people that have hit 100000, we just don't hear about it that much....

Given proper care, I would think these engines could last well beyond 100,000 miles
