thanks for sharing your miata story. i think everything will be ok with the boxster. i do think porsche does a one year warranty on replacent parts and service. so if you paid for a new coolant tank, they will pretty much have to deal with you until your car holds coolant.

i know that people in our situation are usually way too busy to have our time wasted by going to the dealer multiple times, but be nice to the service guys. the way they look at it, they didnt sell you the used boxster out of warranty. if you only have 1 or 2 dealerships to go to, you dont want to alienate them.

my first boxster was a 99 w 17 k miles. the day after i got it i took it to porsche for a 30k service ($1,000.00). the next day the check engine light came on. took it back, new MAF ($600.00) a month later fuel evap valve ($600.00) a month later window regulator ($600.00). after that i had a straight year of trouble free motoring. little things are very expensive in the porsche world. as long as you dont need a new engine, be happy.
