The thing about the Porsche that I hate (when compared to older BMWs I've owned) is that the Boxster keeps getting me stranded. Waterpump, shift linkage, ignition switch all left me dead away from home. I think I'm going to keep the car because I really do enjoy it! I need to identify what else could fail in the next 20,000 miles and then go ahead and replace it. The wheel bearings are a great place to start. Any other suggestions?

Truegearhead: I don't know if you have done any or all of the work on your car yourself, but in case you have not, let me interject - The Boxster is much, much easier to work on than a BMW M3. I have a 2002 M3 also, and it seems like everything is a huge PITA to get to, compared to the 986, where most things are fairly easy to get to. the P-car designers did it right.
