Wow. You must want a Boxster pretty bad.
Most of the routine maintenance things (oil changes, brake fluid, brake pads and the like) are things that are well within the capability of most mechanically adept people.
If you have a Maintenance Manual (it should have come with the car) it will tell you what needs to be done and when. If you don't have one, they are all over eBay, so get one, and the Owner's Manual, too. Also, in your situation probably a shop manual would be a good investment. The best one (except for the mega-buck factory ones) is from Bentley, I think.
I believe Porsche has the space saver type spare tire available through the parts dept at the dealer.
What goes wrong with them? Probably the same stuff as any other car. The whole thing is electronic, so that is probably your biggest worry as a good hosing in the electrics can put you out of business in a hurry, with a fix a 16-hour tow away.
Why not a nice Toyota Land Cruiser or something?
