I had also replaced the Brake Master Cylinder and the Clutch Slave Cylinder.
But I need to point out that my car was at 197,000 miles at that point.
Now I should be good to go and will only need to replace minor worn suspension components.
Happy Boxstering,

Approximate numbers
Waterpump $200
Coolant Tank $375
Oil Change $100

Year Before it was like most everyone.
Rear Tires $350

Looks like this car eats alot of tires.

[97 Boxster]

This past year of ownership:
-New Tires Front and rear $700
-New soft top with Glass Window $800
-Oil Change $100
-Door Lock Mechanism $300
-Key FOB (not yet purchased but another few hundred if I bite the bullett).

[Oaktown 986]

2 oil changes = $160
1 GAHH Top installed, with new pushrods (book caused some damage being left on the shelf) = $3750
New MAF = $400 installed
New Spark Plugs and coils = $76
New Starter, brake booster, brake fluid flush, water pump, tow = $1100

Total cost for 1 year? $5486

Without onetime Top expense? $1736, about $500 more than a typical year of Audi ownership.

My new tires that cost $1000 with tax, just missed the cutoff.

Just for routing maintenance and normal wear and tear-
replaced the ider pulley for the serpentine belt - $60.00
one coil pack - $50.00
need to replace the front trunk latch - $75.00
( I do get discounts on these parts and do my own work- so no labor costs included)
TRACK related expenses - approx $13000.00
too many to list and this includes upgrades to the engine and brakes and tires
