Smile Buying a 2003 Boxster S

Well, I have taken the plunge, I have committed to buy a 2003 S, just waiting to get the PPI back. Nice car with a tiptronic, maint. records, and some nice options. If all goes well I will be picking it up a week from Friday. Anything I should be looking for when I pick it up? It has had the RMS replaced and looks like it is in excellent condition.
:dance:

If the person doing the PPI knows what he's doing, you should be in good shape. It's an almost 7 yr old car, he's bound to find something. Other than that, read this forum like crazy. It's helped me immensely with my '02 S. Oh, also pick yourself up a Bentley shop manual for $60-$70. There's one on eBay now:

Hope your PPI and purchase work out.

Thats a great color combo, black and savannah I think?

Just change the oil and drive it a lot. Don't get scared by the IMS paranoia.
