I'd do the IMS if I were you. I was a doubter but eventually got too paranoid and had it done on my 2000 Boxster S with 76,000 miles on it. The bearing was about to fail. It sounds like a lot of money, but once you've done it you know you have a good car that you don't have to worry about. Just my .02.
