Nope. If something bad happened to this one I would go right out and buy another. I've owned 30+ cars and I've never had a car that was this much fun to drive. It's a rush every time I've turn the key.
Mine is a '99. I bought it with 93000 km and now, four years later, it has 124,000 km.
I've spent money on the usual maintenance items - brakes, water pump, plugs - and a small fortune on optional cosmetic upgrades - top, seats, shifter, handbrake, steering wheel, headlights, tail lights - but I have had no actual mechanical failures except for a clutch line that ruptured when a small sharp piece of granite got wedged between the line and the body and sawed its way through. Not really the car's fault. It is the most reliable car I have ever owned.
I do not lie awake at night fretting about an imminent IMS detonation. I think it is highly unlikely to happen and, if it does, I'll just fix it.
Buy your Boxster - you will love it.
