Want to keep repair costs down next 2 years. Tips, suggestions appreciated

Buy a Honda?

I did have to do an axle and wheel bearing, and had some electrical gremlins (battery/ignition switches). But other than that, the Boxster has been pretty good to me. And, the ignition switch is relatively an inexpensive fixes. My Honda needs a wheel bearing too - so that is just a mileage thing (although the Honda has 2x the miles). I've run the Boxster about 50K miles over the past 4 years as a DD.

Drive it. Just breath normal.
