Need advise purchasing a used boxster

[Run]

For 25 k you could get into a 06 or 07 987 with under 50k miles if you look around I picked up a 06 Cayman S last year with 51k on the clock for less than 25 k One owner all service done at Porsche dealer. It also depends on if this is a daily or not. I have 3 cars so my porsches dont get a ton of miles put on them this helps with maintenance cost a little bit. Keep in mind these cars eat tires most get 12 to 15 k on the rears at best and a oil change even DIY is a 100 bucks.

I actually like the boxster convertible. It's going to be my weekend car. I'm thinking an 05 Boxster on... I saw one today, it's on 04 with 28k miles for $18 at a dealership.

I would go with a 06 or better to get up to the more robust IMSB bearing.
I am not one to shout fire on these bearings but why try and save a few bucks upfront for the possibility of massive back end cost. These cars do cost more on avg for maintenance but the smile on your face is well worth it. I have a hard time putting my cars up and then driving my truck once you own one you will understand
