I though I had posted on this question but it didn't seem to go through.
80 miles a month, all short drives. Oil seldom up to temps. Ditto itsnotanova.
Uncertain storage. Water infiltration may mean anything in terms of electrical connections or it may mean nothing.
I bought my second Boxster with consistent miles already put on it to the tune of 8k a year. I had a PPI done on it and $3k later (brakes, tires, 90k service as it is the most comprehensive, alignment) I was good to drive anywhere and did for 5 wonderful years.
The car is worth maybe $3-4k as is. Fixed up $5k worth, maybe 5-6k.
Only go into this if you are willing to go into it. Have access to a great Porsche mechanic and have it shipped to you, repaired and drive around locally for a while where any problem is easily recoverable.
Once you have it in shape, you are in for a wonderful experience.
To show you what I thought, I totaled my first and immediately looked for and bought another. And yes I drove it up and down the east coast. But I knew it was in shape to do that. I even took it through a hurricane in preference to a 4wd CRV that had the world's best rain tires. I had another 8k of personal experience with the car before I did.
