Check out to see if there is a local PCA chapter in your area, this would be a great place to meet people with Boxsters/Caymans and also cars for sale. It's also a good resource to find out what shops owners in your area are using for service/PPI's. While I focused on an S version you really want to find the cleanest you can within your budget either base or S . They all have the potential for IMS issues up through model year 2008 I believe, the 2009 ( I think ) eliminated the IMS shaft. Find the cleanest you can find, hopefully with good service records/history and get a PPI preferably from an independent shop that knows these cars. While I haven't picked up my 2002 S yet I'm sure it will be a pleasurable ownership for many years to come. Good luck.
