3.2's with moderate mileage have sold for about that much.

The more robust S model engines are also less prone to D chunk (cylinder liner cracks) than 2.5 Boxsters and even standard 3.4Carreras. Also, and kind of relevant to you, the reason D chunk seems to happen is because these cars been driven lightly with lower mileage....perhaps due to far fewer oil changes over time.
Moderate mileage is not 28k garage kept like new condition lol! I've seen what what many consider low mileage clean cars lol. My car looks as if it rolled off the showroom floor, has actually 27k miles (in most cars low mileage is a good thing lol).

I was actually wanting info on the 1998 Boxsters reliability not to discuss car values. Look up KBB and you will get a good idea of exactly what you can get for your carin your location. worst case scenario, CarMax will almost always give trade in value for a clean low mileage car.

Keep the coments coming about the early Boxster issues and reliability! I really appreciate it.
