My 1998 Boxster is still going strong. I bought it used in 2003 w/ 22,000 miles from a guy I knew back then. I always intended to use it as my summer "sunshine fun car".....it now has 91,000 miles on it and this year it's 25 years old.
The ONLY items I've replaced other than the wear items (brakes, tires and yearly 5,000 mile oil changes) are the plastic coolant tank in the rear trunk and the convertible cloth top. Does the car ride like new car?...NO it doesn't but it's not bad for s "Sunday driver". Is the radio good? NO but with the top down who cares? lol. The paint and interior are perfect and I still get compliments from those that see it.
I drive it 4,000 to 5,000 miles a year and still get about 25-28mpg....it's a fun car and really owes me nothing. Maybe I just got lucky but the car doesn't "owe me anything" as they say........ride on!
