Hi and welcome to the forum.

I bought a 2000S in '14 with only 10,800 miles and now have 35,000. The car was pristine, very well maintained, came with maintenance records. I've only needed regular maintenance, oil changes, spark plugs, and a few minor things - window regulator, trunk and frunk struts. It did not have the IMS changed and, I'll guess I'll get that done when it needs a clutch.

As I drove it early this morning I was torn between the joy of driving it and mourning the fact that in about a week it will go into hibernation until late March and I'll drive my 2004 Volvo XC 70 with 250k miles through the boxster's hibernation.

As long as you know you can live with the car's limitations (it's not a minivan or suv) and are looking for a joyful driving experience, go for it... oh, I didn't get a ppi but, in retrospect, I guess I should have anyway. Price seems reasonable, if not a little low, if it is in excellent condition and has been well maintained.
