Need some advice... what would you do?

Hi Jake, I think Coreseller gave good advice. Sounds like you really like the Boxster though. Does the car really need or have to have all the stuff you mentioned? Is the engine mount totally shot?...if not don't fix it. The water pump is something that can be fixed if it fails...heck it could last another 50k miles easy. AOS, is the car sucking air?...if not why replace. I drive my 00 'S' with 55k miles all the time and I know my odds of totaling it are greater then the IMS failing. If you replace all the above the car will probably sell quicker but you won't get your money back on the investment. Sounds like you got a deal on the truck, is the primer that bad?..if not paint it later.

Good luck whatever you decide, there will always be another boxster down the road for you if you decide to sell.
