All the info on the net about IMS failure I am scared sick about the implications.
I want to enjoy my new car I did not do a PPS just read the service reports and car-fax and rolled the dice. Was this a mistake? Any advice would be great.

Congratulations on your buy. All the information on the web is highly over-hyped. Very few Boxster's ever have an IMS failure. Nobody knows the percentages but I've spoken to numerous dealer's and the best I can figure out is that it's somewhere well below 3%. My dealership has never seen nor heard of a local IMS issue. Relax and enjoy the car, or sell it. There's no cause to fret. Otherwise, buy an extended service plan and whip that Boxster like was meant to be driven.
