One thing that's not included in any PPI I've asked about is a four wheel alignment.

I shall not buy another Porsche without having this done prior to purchase. Had I done it on my 1997 I would have found out quickly that the car had been wrecked by a previous owner and not repaired properly because it could not be brought into the sweet spot of the alignment specs.

It doesn't take much to mess up the suspension parts and sub frame on a Boxster. Slam a wheel into a curb when the rear end (or front end for that matter) cuts loose on wet pavement and bada-bing, you have serious expensive work to be done to correct it... and you just can't assume the PO didn't quietly get an alignment and keep driving the car or trade it at a dealership for a different automobile.
