Hey guys, I've been having a lot of trouble with my current Mini Cooper S lately and I have been thinking once I get back and running I might sell it and buy something a bit more reliable. So I was looking around on craigslist and found a 2000 Porsche Boxster S for sale for about the same amount as I would get for selling my Mini. The only problem is that the Boxster has 144,500 miles on it. I know Porsches are very reliable cars, but I'm still a bit concerned since that is quite a lot of miles. Is there anything I should look for like problem areas on the car? Will this car last longer without any major problems?
