@@deflexion3677 I will recommend cheap cars that run forever but they won't be exciting. The one I specifically reccommend is a used Toyota Corolla. Any of them from 2003 to now are good but avoid the later ones that have the CVT gearbox. Otherwise, they are a brick and will last a long time. Get one with about 100,000 miles and that is still in decent condition (make sure to have a good mechanic like Scotty inspect it for any hidden problems though). If possible, check for any records and make sure the previous owner(S) at LEAST changed the oil on time.

My friend owns an 02 Boxster and it's been my first experience working on one. The only things I've replaced were the headlamp switch and oil separator in three years. The oil separator isn't the worst service, but I did find it handy to have a second hand at the top of the engine bay as I aligned the lower portion of it. The headlamp switch was ridiculously easy to remove and replace. Quite frankly, it's a great little car that will bring smiles for miles as a toy. Especially cruising the two lanes here in SW Virginia.

Scotty is absolutely right. I've been a Porsche owner and enthusiast for over 30 yrs. Never bought one brand new, always 2nd hand and do all the repair work myself. The only way to own them on a budget IMHO. They're not that bad to work on and actually very well designed and very very well documented. There's a huge community of enthusiast to support you too. That's always good. Those boxsters in particular are great fun project cars. The engines are somewhat fragile but work great as long as you take care of the well-known serious flaws and maintain them. You can even EV them, LS swap them or pretty much anything you want if the OE engine goes out. Is a great DIYer platform. They're great at that but they'll require more maintenance than a honda or toyota for sure. UHP tires wear out quicker than you think and it gets expensive quick if you daily them around a city. Also budget for 8-9 qts of oil + filter every 5K-7K miles.

A mate of mine had an old 911. He only kept it while he could maintain it himself as the older models are mechanically simple.

It was fun while it lasted.

Upkeep is inexpensive, beneficial insurance; expected.

Porsche makes great sports cars. For me the Boxster is the best compromise.

Picked up a Spider from '86 back in 2014 for $3,500 and it's still running. I only take it to car shows to keep the miles low. I put around 500 miles a year on it. Currently it's at 13,423 miles

A 350z is more fun than a boxster, much more reliable and cost effective too.

@@cantnot2797 Porsche Boxter has been on the top of the reliability list in Sweden. Based on yearly inspection stats. The 350z hasnt.

@@martinsvensson6884 That’s because Porsche Boxster owners (especially in Sweden) generally drive much less than the average 350z owner. Personally, I love Porsche’s but if you want a car that can handle more of a beating but is still is just as fun, a 350z is a fairly good alternative. Besides, If I’m ever gonna buy a Porsche, it’s gotta be a 911.

Hey scotty. I was looking to buy a 2007 Honda pilot. And the carfax shows there has been no service history/repair for 8years. Until 2015 is this a redflag?

My dad has one, he hit a curb and broke the radiator. I replaced said radiator over a weekend. As soon as I finished the job the drivers-side window stopped working, the top worked intermittently, the electronic trunk stopped working. None of these were ever an issue. 99k/mi. Scotty is always right, when you see a European car, RUN!!!
