Daily driver issue

[Brett_Engel]

I'm about your size (5'10" 180lbs) and the Boxster is a perfect fit with room to
spare. As a daily driver, I'd expect somewhat higher costs, but then the Giggles/$
is much higher on the Porsche than a Honda.

We took the plunge earlier this year and bought a 2001 Speed Yellow Boxster S
with 44K miles from a private party in our local community. I needed to replace all
the CV boots (2 cracked and 2 very hard) and a cable on the convertible top.
The total repairs were about $2000 total and the car has been dead reliable since
then. I work from home, but drive the Porsche about 30-200 mi. week depending.

We get about 25-30mpg hwy and maybe 17-20mpg in town, mileage seems to be directly related to your right foot position LOL!! T he A/C works well for a ragtop, we'll know more as it gets to 110F this week in Phoenix...

If buying from a private party, I'd suggest having the car checked out by a Porsche
dealer or mechanic, it may cost a bit, but, that way you know...
