Sorry to hear about all your troubles. My first Porsche was an 01 Boxster S that was 4 yrs old w/ 15K mi when I bought it. There were always problems with it, so I can relate to your experience. 6 mo after the CPO ran out, I traded it in on my 08 S Limited Edition. My LE, my 08 CSS, and the 07 CS I owned before the CSS have all been extremely reliable cars. My LE just turned 50K mi today, my CSS has 45K mi (had 7400 mi when I bought it) and it's my bad weather & DE car. I put 17K mi on my 07 CS. So I've put a few miles on my numerous 987Ss and they've all been great. I'm prepping the CSS to run at Indy in 2 wks.

I would suggest finding a low mileage 987S and chances are you'll enjoy the Porsche experience.
