Ironic that this thread has been started as I was just about to start a similar thread. What great cars but it comes with some very serious and expensive potential flaws. I can't help but to think how much fun I had in my first two Boxster cars, a 99 base followed by an 01 S. I had no idea of the issues, water pump, IMS or RMS or anything else that could have popped up. I drove both of the cars as fair weather DD and put over 40K on the 99 (did have to replace an alternator) and 35K on the 01S with zero issues. Now I am thinking of getting another S, 986 or 987 to be determined, and all I can think about is the dreaded IMS issue.

Wish I could go back to being naive and just drive the car with no worries!
