A 2000 Boxster with 11,200 miles, your experiencing typical symptoms of a car sitting for awhile, gasket dryed up from non use. Should you replace the pump? I would, since you indicated that you had to add coolant when you got it, that would indicate that air was in the system and if the bearings on the pump was exposed to air for a any lenght of time they could have become corroded, which can possibily lead to early failure.
As for the Lemon law, I'm not familiar with the Mass specific law, but most States with USED lemon law generally don't consider normal wear items as a basis for a case. Reccomend you check with your local officials.
