These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

11 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Planet-9: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1Original post

Hi everyone, currently have a 06 Cayman S , i'm checking on a 2011 Carrera S with 37K miles PDK , $57K and 2014 Boxster S 9K miles $55K, cant decide which one to purchase. if it was you which car would you buy? owned boxster before. i usually do my own maintenance. How reliable is 2011 Carrera S, at 37K miles what maintenance does it needs. Vic

POST 2Original post

Are you seeking model recognition when pulling into gas stations?

POST 3Original post

No right or wrong answer. Test drive should help you decide. The 911 will need the 40k service pretty soon. Think that includes plugs as well as the major maint items. Warranty may be a consideration. If these are US cars the BoxsterS should have some factory warranty left and possibly could be CPO if buying from a dealer. 911 is past original factory warranty.

POST 4Original post

Yes US cars, buying it from dealer, they told me boxster still has the factory warranty.

POST 5Original post

My two cents would be to go with the Boxster . It is a newer design and is easier to work on.

POST 6Original post

Just based on looks, I'd pick the 981 over the 997 in a blink. If it was a 991, my answer would be different. Based on ride, test drive both for both ride differently. Based on reliability, both are very reliable. Good luck... There's no right or wrong answer. It's subjective.

POST 7Original post

Thank You all for the reply, i will get the Boxster . made plans for Monday. 2014, 9K miles AGATE GREY METALLIC, SPORT CHRONO PACKAGE . PDK . Going to miss my Cayman.

POST 8Original post

That's a fantastic looking Boxster . Love those wheels Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

POST 10Original post

Great cars, both. Those are 20" Sport Classic or Carrera classic wheels or whatever they call it. You didn't say the Boxster you are looking at only has 9000 miles. Comparing that to a 10 year old Carrera is tricky.

POST 11Original post

I am biased but I think you've made an eeeeexcellent choice.
