My mechanic says 944's are making him rich and the owners poor.

Porsches as daily drivers become fairly expensive rides. When they're a fun weekend car and they need repair, you just don't take them out of the garage until you have the cash saved up. But if you have to repair it to drive to work, it can become the worst buying decision you've ever made if you're broke.

I say save up and buy a real dependable boxster from someone who's babied it. If that takes a few years, sobeit. If you buy a beat up old one you'll put all difference in the price into it and still have an old beat up Porsche that runs. Sadly, that's what I did and now I'm faced with needing a paint job, etc. Ugh.
