I for one did a lot of research before buying my Box and the one element that did keep popping up in almost everything I read was 'reliability'. These cars, whether new or 12 years old are still considered to be some of the most reliable, period.
Besides, for all this IMS talk - it still could be worse. How many GM cars have they recalled in the past few years? And how many died before they did the recall? So far as I know - no one died of an IMS failure.

I agree.
I believe that if you "maintain" the Boxster properly, you may not have to "service" it
Lets not forget the Toyota Prius debacle or Ford Explorer rollovers
