Welcome to the 986 community, Nick. Be sure to take a look at our 986 articles here: Porsche Boxster 986/987 (1997-2004) Technical Articles | Pelican Parts for some great info and tips about them. A PPI is a great idea to insure you know what may or may not need attention before you purchase it. Good luck with the purchase!

Thanks! I've been looking at those articles for almost the last week trying to do as much research as possible. I found another cleaner 986 1997 model that I'm planning to go look at this weekend. I also found a MY 2000 base that looked pretty decent that I might look at as well. I appreciate the advice and input from you guys!

My opinion is to hold out. Having just gone through a parallel search myself: for a couple grand more you should be able to find a well sorted base with roughly half the miles. Patience and diligence is everything. But if things unfold well with this particular car, thats ok too
