Like most small automobile manufacturers, some Porsches are driven for years and they're repair-free while others seem to have every problem one could dream about.
I've been asked if my old, high-mileage boxster is a repair and maintenance nightmare and I always report that it's not a big deal to me because I've committed to putting $2,000 a year into the car for repairs, oil changes, new tires, etc.
Last year, I only did an oil change and a control arm... which was under $500 in total. However, in other years, I've had to buy new tires (Michelins were $1200) plus the oil change and a coolant tank replacement, etc.
