1997 Boxster 2.5L 126,000 kms and no troubles. Had it up on the rack and the engine is bone dry. no leaks whatsoever. just did the waterpump et al. I should add that I purchased the car last April 2011 and have put on 12km since. I can't stop driving it. It is my daily driver. I've heard from Porsche mechanics that driving these things everyday and maintaining them is better than letting them sit for months in a garage. Low miles on a boxster is not always a good thing. My goal is to get it perfectly maintained and when I can afford an '09 pull the trigger.
