The host didn't appear to have all his facts straight, claimed that the 993 saved porsche when in fact it was what almost caused them to crash (no pun intended). Is had more parts, was more expensive to manufacture and sold the least units. The boxster saved porsche. Also they got the bearing wrong. The 99 apparently has the strongest bearing the 01-05 have the weaker ones, but who am I preaching to.

Hey coreseller, thanks for posting this. I love my Box S, but an aircooled 911 is high on my wish list. And for the record, not to replace the Boxster, but because I also want an old 911. :-)
