My boxster used to be my daily driver until I started to commute really long distances. now its a garage queen as someone mentioned, my alternative car is a 99 passat with 165K miles. It is true that the less you drive it the more problems you get. I havent had a problem yet but I have seen those who have. BMW's are great cars but the boxster is a different kind of car. it should be respected, which means maintained accordingly. I have been smart about my maintenance and repairs, doing with a porsche specialist or myself.
I have had my car for 2 years now and here are my costs
0il change $135 (porsche mechanic)
Tires $500 ( tirerack sumitumos)
30K maintenance+ oil change $196( did it myself with a lift and a friends with a dealer account)
If you get a low milage check it out for problems first. I have an RMS it sucks but its not that bad, make sure you check if yours has it. also wash you car and clear bra it if you drive freeways.
