One word of caution - Boxster post-partum depression is a real issue! I understand that research scientists are working feverishly to develop a pill to cure this. Until then, all we can do is hope...

Quick story: went out for lunch today to a good Chinese place, walked 6-7 blocks in the cold. Saw a Boxster parked on the street, stopped a minute to study the wheels and intakes. Wasn't until AFTER I moved to leave that the reflection on the windshield changed and I could see that a lady was sitting in the car...

For the record: Both the most frustrating car AND the most frustrating motorcycle that I have owned were both made by Triumph of jolly old England. I fought the battles as long as I could, then retreated to live to fight another day.

Good luck with whatever choice you make.

Maybe our OP is suffering from a failing ignition switch? I was just perusing the other post about the accessories still running, and it appears that a failing ignition switch can cause all kinds of weird electrical issues.

For a $25 part, I think I'd start there, then with the individual switches. Can't cost too much to fix some of those boogers he's encountering.
