Okay, I am a 911 owner and hang out up in the 911 BBS so I have to ask all you Boxster folks a question.
My son-in-law's deal on a Corvette fell through so he is asking me about where he can spend his 33K on a nice Porsche. I am pushing him more on the 993 side (1995-1998) which is the last of the air cooled engines. You know us air-cooled guys are nuts!!!!!!!!!
But a Boxster is not out of the question. So he might do well on a Boxster or S. I
I cringe when I hear of seals failing and engines breaking on these cars leaving a new owner handing out a ton of dough for an engine replacement.
I did hear though that Porsche fixed the IMS issues starting with the 200? year Boxster. That's what I am seeking. Just what year model represents the BIG FIX? Yes, I know you can install the upgrade kit with a new clutch job, and you can add magnets for metal pick-up and other methods to get that "heads up" signal your about to shell out a lot of $$$$$$$.
If someone can chime in and advise on the year the Boxster seal issue was finally corrected by the factory, I would appreciate it.
thanks
