I'm 51. Have owned may vehicles, and I do almost all the work on them myself. There are now five drivers in my family, and I currently own three Saabs, on Mazda MX-5, and a Ford F-150.

I have never owned a Porsche. I have toyed with the idea of buying an older Boxster for a while now. I recently came across this ad for a 2001. It has 65K miles and they're asking $12500.

I have read about engine problems with the Boxsters built before 2000, so is it correct to say this was made right after they fixed the problem?

At any rate, am looking for advice.

Thanks
