'04 986 vs. 987 models
I'm new to this site & forum...be gentle !
I recently sold my 911 and I'm thinking of a boxster. I found a beautiful low mileage '04 Boxster S at a decent price, but I've heard that the 986 models can have severe engine problems because of bearings issues. I've heard that a fairly high percentage need to have engines replaced by 60 k miles. One mechanic told me to forget the 986 model, and concentrate my search on an 987 ('05 + newer).
So...I'm getting close to buying a car....any comments out there ??....986 vs. 987. I really want to get this right !!! Affordability is also an issue (isn't it always ?) Thanks for your help....
