For all the talk about the IMS, 85% of even the worst version of the IMS are still original and causing no trouble. There are other parts for other cars that fail more frequently, my family just had two Toyota failures in the last 2 weeks. Both serious failure to start in awkward places on each car. Would I damn Toyotas because of that? Heck no. Both were, in a certain sense, anticipatable and avoidable with proactive replacement of a part known to fail at certain intervals. (Now tell me with all the fancy electronics and sensors we know have in our cars why battery low voltage isn't something that you can be warned about 90% of the time. I have 25 other warning lights.)
Your money, your choice, every car has certain week points. A Boxster has enormous strong points.
