A Boxster is simply not as reliable as your 1994 Honda. If you want a Honda, buy a Honda.

Overall the Boxster is a simple car that unfortunately requires more money than average for things like maintenance, repairs, etc. You might be surprised by how much tires ($1200+) and oil changes ($100+) will cost as compared to your Honda. You may also be surprised by how much the cheap plastic bits in the cabin cost when they break (and they will).

If my Boxster dies one day on the side of the road, it will be a sad day. I would be very likely to go buy another one.

I think the Boxster is worth it, you may or may not.
