Garage
I think you'll find many boxster owners aren't afraid to turn a wrench. At least a majority of us on this forum have done some jobs on the car ourselves. That said, I know where my knowledge, garage space and tools on hand will require me to farm a job out. I have a great indy mechanic that gets that I'm an enthusiast and is helpful in understanding I enjoy doing some of the work myself.

I've done brakes, the starter, spark plugs and tubes, motor mount, all oil changes. I took the car in for an aos change because I didn't have a garage (job is a real pain anyway) and another time to have a nagging code figured out. Ended up being an o2 sensors which I could've done myself, but I couldn't figure out the cause, he did. If I took it to a dealer or even my indy for every job, I couldn't own this car.
