Buying used Boxster, what to look for?

a friend is looking at a 2001 Boxter with 75k miles on it

What are some of the problem areas he needs to look for?

Questions to ask the owner?

Thanks for any info you can offer

Find Mike Fokke's web site. It will give a ton of info.

Best bet is a professional PPI. Ask the same questions about a 2001 Box as a 2001 911.

Accidents, maintenance, records etc.
