2003 Boxster cant decide

I am looking at buying a 03 boxster with a tip trany and 50 k miles on it. I have read all the stories on the IMS and RMS problems. Now I am not so sure I want to look at another one.
With that said if I do take the plunge what can I expect with this car going in. I know they used the single line bearings on this car so and IMS problem seems more likely. Is getting an extended warranty a good choice and if so any recommendations.

Or should I take it and have the retrofit done. I have never had to think so hard when buying a toy as this will only be for fun but on the other hand a blown up engine is not what I consider fun.

Will
