1998 w/ 135k for $6100...a steal??????????

I just purchased a 1998 black 3 owner Boxster with 135,000 miles for $6100. This car looks, runs and drives brand new and everything works except the washer fluid sprayer but who cares? Let me give the short list of new parts in last 5 years and 20,000 miles that this third owner has done and provided me documented receipts from Porsche dealer...

brake pads
rotors
tires
flywheel
camshaft seal
ims bearing (replaced with upgraded one as preventative measure as clutch was replaced)
clutch
pilot bearing
clutch slave/master cylinder
o2 sensor
front wheel bearings and 4 wheel alignment
thermostat
serpentine belts
clock light bulb (shows the meticulousness of owner)

All services done at Porsche dealer and car-fax shows clean title and all services going back from when purchased including regular oil changes, scheduled maintenance services by previous owners and emissions checks that always pass.

Did I really get the deal of a lifetime that I think I did?????
I understand that there can be other issues on an 18 year old car but it seems engine and transmissions are robust and with a near perfect maintenance done, seems I can get a good 200,000 out of this car?????????
