2001 3.2S Manual 43K miles Manufacturers service intervals adhered to. Bought used 4 months ago. RMS was weeping slightly when I bought the car (4K miles ago) and has not become any worse. Oil consumption = 0. Very varied driving style from gentle to flat out.

2000 Boxster 2.7L 5 Speed Manual.
82,000 miles.
Regularly serviced at Porsche dealer for most of its life according to Carfax report.

It went through 1 water pump, 4 light bulbs, and two O2 sensors in its life.
The only problem I have now is a small vacuum leak somewhere.
