I"ve been test driving cars - and cross shopping a lot of them - and NOTHING really compares to the boxster. i've considered a lot of cars - and after every test drive - I coem back to the boxster.

my problem is that I am on a limited budget - and trying to get a third "toy" car. I also have read the numerous threads on motors going out and the $10k or so bill to fix one.

I simply CAN'T buy a boxster and then even possibly get hit with a 10k repair bill.

I'm looking to spend $20k max. I would be happy with a 2.7 and don't need a boxster S. I've driven my dad's 2000 2.7 and love it.

is it possible to find a 2000-2002 boxster in that price range with some sort of warranty on it that would be good for another 2-3 years or am i dreaming?
