I would budget around $3k in planned spending before I'd drive it that distance. PPI, tires, belt, oil, brake flush, coolant, etc. I'd worry about injectors, bad gas, shocks,, even spark plugs, etc.

The Porsche mechanic would know things specific to Boxsters that even an experienced other-brand mechanic might not pick up.

The low mileage means it has been sitting around and things have not been running with fluids circulating. I'd want to spend a day or two at the pick-up location near the PPI mechanic just driving to make sure that everything was working, the temps were good, etc before setting out on your drive.

Wonderful cars. Owned two. Drive safe and tell us how the trip went.
