Tires, brakes and motor mount are regular maintenance items. Other items are likely due to neglect from the previous owner. Clutch shouldn't need to be done at 80k unless it was a daily driver in Manhattan, but as you said you bought it from a rich kid so he likely dumped the clutch in front of his friends just for fun.

It's been said many times, people bought boxsters for a few grand thinking they got a deal, but what may be cheap to buy a Porsche doesn't equal cheap to maintain...

Such is my case. Well, I'm really happy that none of you guys are encountering problems. That means once I get mine up to speed, it should be easy running.
