I am at 86,000 miles in my 2000 Box. Haven't done the IMS and don't plan to anytime soon. I also drive my car like its meant to be driven. Always revving high, turning fast, accelerating as fast as I can each time I drive it. When I did oil change at 80k, the oil filter had no debris.

Plus, I hear the IMS issue is due to maunfacturing tolerances problems. Some were not in the correct tolerances and some were. It's impossible that all Boxsters were effected.
