New owner - what to tackle first

Hello everyone. I picked up an '01 Boxster yesterday with 34,000 miles on it. This is my first Porsche. When I buy a used car, I usually start by replacing all the fluids (engine oil, trans oil, diff oil), filters, and plugs/wires. However, most of the cars I buy have way more than 34,000 miles.

Without knowing the service history of this vehicle, is it necessary to go through all this with so little mileage? Are the fluids still useful, even if they are fifteen years old? I'm assuming the trans and diff fluid are original.

Anything I should definitely take care of right away?
Thanks.
