2001 Boxster: 64, low
2000 Boxster: 41, low

We have two additional statistics, "Nada-odds" and "Lemon-odds", to indicate the percentage of cars with no repairs in the past year and those that required 3+ trips to the repair shop:

2008 Boxster: 82, < 1
2007 Boxster: 71, < 1
2006 Boxster: 66, 3
2005 Boxster: 61, < 1

Next updates in November and in February. The more owners participate, the more comprehensive and precise these will be.
