I'm looking into an 05 or 06 Boxster S for import into Canada in the spring.

Any Boxster owners, 986 or 987, that can give me an idea of the weak points reliability wise on these cars? I currently own a 2004 Honda S2000 that has been bulletproof and am wondering if I can expect Porsche reliablity to be close.

 

Stick with the Honda. At least you don't have to worry about all the women chasing you down the street in your Porsche.....it really sucks.

Seriously though. The Porsche cars are bulletproof in my experience. I cover my Boxster over the Winter and occasionally start it up and take it for a spin if the weather warrants. Doesn't seem to mind. The best thing for these cars, however, is to drive them.

My $.02.

 

IMHO cars are a safer, and cheaper vice than women. I'm just not into high maintenance women, or high maintenance cars, but am lusting for the road feel of the Porsche, extra torque, and a more unique car.

Unfortunately US P-car dealers don't want to sell me 05-06 new Boxsters for import, so I'm looking slightly used.
