Newbie getting 1st Boxster, would like buying advice.

[Chills]

Hi everyone, I've been on the board a few weeks reading posts and learning about the Boxster. There's quite a bit of info here. Also, everyone seems very cool; not just Porsche owners, you're Porsche enthusiasts.

So I plan on buying my first Porsche in the next month. I want to get a 2003 Boxster S. I have a couple of questions I hope you all might be able to offer some advice.

1. I'm in Naperville, IL (Chicago suburb) and I was wondering are there dealers you could recommend in the area?

2. I've looked on eBay and have seen some really good deals. I'm just not sure about buying a car on eBay. I've bought a motorcycle from a dealer on eBay and the transaction was smooth as silk. I can get more for my money there and I'd like to get thoughts on this course of action. What do you think about buying from eBay?

Thanks in advance.
