I agree that they'll look for any reason to not pay. If you maintain your car per mfr rec and can prove it, that should strengthen your position if they deny. I always carry an extra quart of oil; if...

Maxcare's fine print

The link above that Mike gave is for the Maxcare brochure. The attachment (if it works) is the terms and conditions of the Maxcare contract.

new issue

The sales guy clarified that it is a Maxcare, not a Porsche warrantee. So now my issue is if Maxcare will cover an engine failure due to an IMS failure.

This would have to be true for the warrantee company or casino to stay in business. I've dropped a few bucks at casinos never expecting to get anything back except for entertainment. Maybe I could...

Thanks Dale. You can trust the Germans to give you good info in the manual. This will help in my decision in what year and S/base to look for.

So for MY00 to MY02 the S has about 15% more hp and...

looking for torque in all the wrong places

I'm looking for torque specs for the 2.7 L and 3.2 L engines from MY00 to MY04. Dyno graphs would be nice too. I found the HP specs in Mike Focke's info but I'm coming up empty with other searches...

Jake Raby doesn't need to answer. Anyone input would be helpful.

what driving style?

What kind of a diving style is needed to be considered "preventive measures"?
I've read that tracked boxes seem to have less LMS failures. So I'm hoping the answer is something like "don't lug the...

Good point. I think the title is important. Eg., "Important 986 Poll" would be better than "IMS Poll". Hopefully that will get the attention of those on the forum, without IMS problems, to...

I'd like to keep my Miata and turn it into a track rat, maybe even spec series.

You're right. I meant that the Boxster was in a different league than the Miata, although both are great in their own respect.

I just found the sticky thread, "Thinking of buying a Boxster". That...
