Good advice by all, but if you want to buy a Boxster go ahead & buy the Durametric software for Porsche's. You need a laptop, then you can scan the cel & see what caused it & have some insight as to why it won't run. Also will tell you if the engine has been overreved enough to damage engine. Also remove oil filter canister to inspect for metal.
I would buy the car if it passed these simple tests. Keeping in mind it's a $ 8,000 car if it runs decently.

PS. A hardtop in Tucson is useless & a pain to store or sell.
