My 98' Boxster just turned 25 years old. I'm the second owner. I bought it when it was 4 yrs old and had 24,000 miles on the ODO. (5 speed manual)

It now has 92,000 miles (only summer driving) on it and the only things I've done over those years are regular 5,000 mile oil changes (not 10,000), air filter changes, replaced the water pump, replaced the coolant expansion tank in the rear trunk and obviously a few tire changes.

The car is in near perfect cosmetic condition inside and out.....and even though the "book value" is very very low (around $7,500 - $9,000) it's worth lots more to me for the fun I get from it on a beautiful summer, top down driving day.

BTW.....my indy Porsche mechanic says that in all of the years they've worked on Boxsters he's only had ONE that suffered the IMS failure.....he says it should not be a concern.

Buy a Boxster and have fun!
