I'm not going to go out of my way to scare you off here. But in your first post, you're talking about how you can't do brakes yourself and you live in an apartment. A Porsche requires maintenance. Not crazy difficult maintenance but you do need to stay on top of it. In the almost three years I've had mine I've done brake pads, spark plugs and tubes, a starter replacement, front motor mount, and numerous oil changes. I sent the car out of an aos and what ended up being a mass air flow sensor and o2 sensor. I saved a lot by doing the repairs I did myself. But it's still expensive to run. If you don't have 1-2k a year to throw at this car, you may find yourself over your head. If you've read anything from this forum...You'd know that the cheapest boxster to buy is quite often the most expensive one you'll ever own...just sayin. Best of luck.
