Second Boxster was another 98 white/blue 5speed with 117K purchased in Sept 2012 for $5400. Top works but the rear window was not in great shape. Front end shakes and rattles and it needed motor mounts.

I still have the car as I have been very slow working on it as I spent most of the winter and spring working overseas. The car now has 119,500 miles. I'm almost done with the car and will have no trouble selling it.

To date, I've spent ~$2,300.

Front end painted, hood straightened (rock chips on front end and hood was dented from inside from an item too large for the front trunk)
Motor Mount
Fuel Filter
Air and cabin filter
Spark Plugs
2 new rear tires (old ones cracked even though only 4 years old)
Suspension work (installed front struts and drop link, used from a forum member parting out his 2001S)
New used seats (from 2003S off ebay...looked like new!)
Oil/Filter change. .
New (used)headlights to replace foggy, yellow ones
Used top and frame
Flushed brakes
Balanced 4 tires
