I just picked up my first boxster yesterday, an 01 S with 61k miles. While driving it back I started to hear a clicking sound a couple hours in that proceeded to get louder. It now sounds more like a loud knocking sound. As far as I can tell it has nothing to do with rpm and putting in the clutch doesn't change anything. If I put my hand on the e-brake I can feel the pulsing vibration, if that makes sense. As I sit in the drivers seat it sounds the loudest from my back right. Engine performance is just fine and I can't feel anything else wrong.

Any ideas at what I might be looking at?
