Hi Randall,

Thanks a ton for the advice man! I read your site (iwantaporsche) and I did forget about the sensors. I'm thinking you're absolutely right about the MAF. I forgot I read a message on this board about a MAF needing to be cleaned/replaced if you have a crappy idle. I'll probably pass on this one since I'm looking at another boxster tomorrow (2000 S w/55k) so I'll see how that one goes. I'm coming from a 944 (owned for about 10yrs now) and when I bought it I had to do all the CV's and wheel bearings also. Funny how you can sometimes forget stuff when looking at a great car (exterior wise).

One question I have though is why would you only go for a 2003? As far as I can tell that year (mike fockes page) didn't have any super major revisions done or any engine fixes that would drop the failure rate.
