Rebuilt my original just to make it better & last longer than I do.

I have 95,500 miles now. Bought it just under 3 years ago with 58k on it. The engine was replaced with a Porsche rebuild in 2008 with 37k on it.

I would say 1 out of 10 boxsters that I buy have had the motor replaced and most of them have been 1999's. One only had 43k and another had a second blown motor!
