I heard a lot of horror stories when I bought my 98 boxster. I was wondering where I put my 15k after I had bought it. But after 8 months and 45000km this car has been a rock. I have been very proactive with oil changes, every 3 to 4000km with 5w40 Titan oil. I drive it every day, right thru this last winter with Hankook ice bears. It is solid in snow and rain, the mid engine gives you an uncanny hold of the road. You can react quickly and the low end torque allows you to keep the revs down and stay in control. On dry pavement it's a blast revving the motor in 3rd or 4th when on and off exit ramps feeling the car stick to the road, that is pure adrenalin. Ferry Porsche drove the 1st silver mid engine roaster Porsche ever built the 356 no1 for 50 years and it couldn't have been more powerful than the 2.5 Boxster, so if it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me. The Boxster is an extension of the Porsche legacy. First electric car, first 4 wheel drive car, first mid engined car...that's what I think of my Boxster.
