Thanks all - just trying to set a realistic budget to get the car from where it is to where it is as described above. I guess it all depends on what it costs to get the intermix resolved. The intermix thing is such a bummer, because the engine runs so damned good. It's really a strong engine.

I'm glad that I bought it really cheap. Gives me quite a bit of room to work financially without getting buried.

Well bought! Glad to hear that you're still in a decent financial position.

Very few people seem to understand that profitability is ultimately determined more at the buying phase than at the selling phase.

I have to agree wholly with MWS on this, not that I get you. But some things you spend money on are for the pure enjoyment they bring to you. Based off our what did you pay for your boxster thread $10K to $11K sound about right for an S with those miles. In my opinion the boxster is about bottom out value wise, but wont really increase in value either as so many were produced. Best thing is fix it the way you want it and enjoy the car.
