Hi I just bought a 2001 Boxster non S with closer to 90000 miles in the Chicago area a few months ago. I paid 9000 for it and I feel like that was a bit high for this area, but we needed triptronic for my wife because it's "her car". That narrows the choices down quite a bit. I did read about the IMS issues before buying it, and it didn't concern me too much. We paid to have a certified Porsche mechanic inspect it before we bought it. He was able inform me as to the basic maintenance it will need in the future. It was really helpful and informative. I didn't mind paying a bit more, knowing it was in good sound shape mechanically. If you like to tinker with vehicles, this car is perfect. You'll save a lot of money if you can do the maintenance yourself. I've done tons of cheap modification and upgrades to it already, and I love driving it too. This forum has pretty much everything you need to know if you end up buying one. I've learned quite a bit, but still know very little.
Good luck
