I had an NA z32 before my '00 base boxster. I owned it for about 8 years from 85k miles to 160k+ miles. I regret selling it everyday. Get the Z32 IMO...they are getting rare. Working on them in a total pain in the rear though. My car never left me stranded but there is more maintenance than the boxster as you have the timing belt and associated wear parts that go with it, and my car went through two steering racks and a crank angle sensor among other basic running costs. I was not as much of a DIY back then but working on that car left my arms bruised and battered every single time but they are gorgeous cars and quite well built.
