Looking to do buy a 2001 Boxster S - Some questions for the experts

Thanks for your perspective boxfix. I completely agree with you - but I’m a little puzzled - why you think this car has “lots of known issues”? The major ones I’ve been worried about - RMS and IMS...

What “issues” are you seeing Mikefocke? This car has almost perfect service records? The fact it hasn’t (or I haven’t verified) that the IMs has been done?

I’m kind of confused - sure the top...

I thought of that - would they freely share that information if I just give them the VIN? And are clutch/IMS as big of issue on tiptronic? I was also under impression the PPI could vet the mainseal.
