Other favorites include Rear Main Seal, other gaskets like Cam Covers, Tires (amazing how many buyers don't even look at these) Batteries, Wheel Bearings, Starters, O2 sensors.
All CAN be picked up with a good PPI.
Thanks

my local Porsche garage in Melbourne told me when I bought my '98 Boxster, that there are typically three things that go wrong with them.
1. A few early models needed an engine replacement (mine has a new one)
2. The MAF sensor goes (mine went earlier this year)
3. The cables for the hood break (mine broke earlier this year)
So far so good. It's been driving like an absolute dream ever since. Once I put my new Continental SportContact2 tires on the rears, the handling has been fantastic. I'm gonna replace the front's after Christmas too.
In summary, if you are in the market for an early Boxster, look out for these three items, and factor them into your buy price and cost of ownership.
