key remote

I have an '01 base that I purchased from the second owner of the car(I won't go into how I researched for months and was going to be the most educated pre-owned Boxster purchaser and not do anything impulsive or stupid if the deal wasn't 100% perfect.......... and then I don't know what happened).

Anyway, PO didn't have the remote key(I got two, vallet and just one with a broken lighted head, supposedly a temp) but remote was supposedly not working and he had to find it. I never got it from him, he basically fell off the face of the Earth, I wrote it off as my problem.

I purchased a proper key head(thanks for the warnings Randall) from a dealer and plan on going to get it programmed one of these days. My question is, are all cars equipped to use a remote or can it actually be that the car never had one? The owners manual got me thinking about this. Is there a way to know this without a trip to the dealer?
