I drive mine like i stole it! (havn't had it for too long though)

Only problem i have had was when i over reved it once. I went from 6th to 2nd (instead of 4th, i was just getting used to it) and it overreved bug time. Luckily i didn't let the clutch out fully to do any serious damage, but it still hit a high rev past the rev limit.

I got tappet noise immediately thereafter. (Boxsters have hydrolic tappets, can't adjust them. They are comprised of oil and a ball, thus use clean oil in your car!).

The noise did not go away until the next morning, after it cooled down (thank god!). It has not come back since.
