well a well driven and maintained Boxster can indeed be very reliable.
I've only had one repair over $300 on my 2000S. Which is kind of surreal for a 'rare" car.
But when dealing with a high mileage (over 50K miles) car, The question is how did the previous owner drive the thing? did the previous owner make it a practice wait until the oil temp was up before revving it over 3K? Proper shifting?
and of course maintenance records.
