you need to factor closer to 2k for the bearing if you are having someone do it. Should have no problem finding a 97-99 base for that price. 80k would be a safe mileage for it.
things that need done around that time or before normally
AOS
clutch
RMS update (with clutch normally)
water pump/thermostat
belt (with waterpump)
they are generally not money pits,we are not talking a B5 Audi S4 or anything...consumer reports actually lists the 03 Boxster as a best bet reliability wise.
