I can also understand being afraid after all the negative press out there right now why one would want to sell their Boxster. I must be more of a gambler, although I hate gambling, because after reading and reading all the negatives about IMS and the like, I still just purchased my first Boxster after owning, still own, five BMWs.

My neighbor spent an hour trying to convince me I should buy a Z3 over a Boxster because of all the Boxster engine problems.
Congrats on the purchase and welcome to the forum! Factor in an IMS replacement/guardian/solution/DOF etc, and then go drive it

The very first thing I did when I picked up my Boxster is make an appointment to have for the IMS replacement. Scheduled for the middle of November. Will take a look at the clutch and flywheel at the same time and replace if necessary. Then I can breathe a little easier when I drive her.
