The PPI results are in. Here is a summary of the inspection report on both vehicles.

'02- this Boxster S is rated overall as Excellent. No engine codes, one small scratch noted on the front bumper, it has Pirelli S tires which have 40% remaining, foam is blowing out of the AC vent, and the roll bar wind deflectors are missing. Driving, shifting, and braking all rated excellent. Some of the lug nuts have rust. Clean inside and out and well taken care of.
'04- this Boxster S is rated overall as Good. The scanner returned one engine code-P0332 - knock sensor 2 circuit low input Bank 2. There are three minor scratches noted on the paint- one on the front right fender and one on each of the doors. The drivers door storage arm rest does not stay up. The headlights are sun faded. Tires are new, 85%, Sumitomo tires. Driving, shifting, and braking all rated excellent. The oil appears new and there are no leaks.

So there appear to be some pros and cons to both vehicles. Any further thoughts?
Thanks again for your counsel on this big decision. I will keep you posted on the remainder of the story and appreciate your further advice.

Oh, and by the way the 02 has a blue exterior and gray interior. The 04 is black on black.
