Hey. And greetings from Finland. I don't know if this would've been worth of it's own thread so I just put it here, hoping no-one gets hard feelings on it...
I came to your forums to seek for information about boxsters. I've been wanting to get one for a few years but never had the chance. Now, I'm selling my A4 Avant because I don't need the extra space on it anymore. The thing is, as I'm going a bit nervous reading these threads full of problems and what is more scary about it, expensive ones.
I'm only going to be able to get the entry level, early year and propably ~100 000 km = ~60k miles or so boxster. Based on anyones experiences, is it "wise" to get one that old or just let it be and think about something else? I really like the look on boxsters, but I haven't even been able to drive one yet. So I don't even know if it has enough room for me as I'm 189cm tall. Dunno how it's converted to feet and such, but lets just say I'm taller than average, at least around here.
I have had 290 whp in my turbocharged V6 Mazda mx-6 (and having more in time as I get it sorted again), so I don't expect it to be stunningly fast.
I gotta get back studying the boxsters secrets, but just wanted to hear some opinions about owning one of the older boxsters, whether it's asking for some problems or not.
Sorry if these are questions that you've answered million times before.
