97 Box 47k miles - safe?

[HIFI]

Hello all,

I've been looking at buying a Boxster for a few months now and, after reading the forums, am scared to death of purchasing one with an engine about to blow. I am currently considering a 1997 Boxster with 47000 miles on it. Do you think that is past the point where I would have to worry about the engine blowing? Is there a model year where this failure stopped occuring??

I have learned a lot of great information from the forum so far (thanks!), but it's still hard for me to pull the trigger on one with this known issue.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!
