Life is not always greener

Greetings all,
As some of you may recall - I left the Boxster fold about a year ago (2001 yellow 2.7 5 sp) for a new RX8 with a four year warranty. I had some vague fears of RMS, although never actually had any problems with the car at all except for the ignition switch that I replaced myself with the help of this forum.
Anyway, the RX8 is at the dealer as we speak, awaiting a new engine. The car has 5500 miles, CEL led to discovery of low compression in one side. Mazda solution is an engine swap, since they have centralized the repair of the rotary engines.
There's a decent forum for RX8'ers, their poll shows a nearly 20% engine swap rate of those who voted, although most were in the first year 2004.
Had a moment there where I missed the Box -
