Buying Advice on a base 1998

Hello Everyone.

Hoping for some buying advice.

I am talking to a person who has a 1998 Boxster Base for sale.

Asking is 8900.00

No IMS bearing swapped but he did replace:

clutch
AOS
Rear Main Seal
coolant reservoir

He has a hard top Convertible top and interior is in good condition.

He also has repair history and a PPI for me to review

Aftermarket items:

Headers
Sport Exhaust
Wheels/Tires 19"

The only item he feels needs attention is the struts.

They need replacing

Paint looks good from the pics with a small area on the convertible panel that is sun faded.

Being a 1998 how much of a risk is the IMS on this one?

I feel that if the car has reached 123,000 there is a low chance of failure.

123000 miles on the O.D.

Thanks for your opinions/advice

Mike
