Yes the wail is the clincher for the sound department when you drive it hard. No regrets after one year of ownership of my base 2001 Boxster. Yes I have spent $2k in the past year on cv joints, ims guardian, oil change. It has not let me down at all and I drive it thru the winter. It feels way more substantial than my previous '99 Miata MX5. Mine has no psm, no remote key entry and I think it has vinyl seats but really don't miss the options. The heated seats and air cond. work really well. I would advise a PPI or take somebody that knows Boxsters well. Take your time looking. There are lots of choices out there.
