In the market for my first entry way into Porsche. Was looking at a 2014 981 Boxster S. 26,000 miles and $47k. Four previous owners. Passed all inspections and had 20,000 service already done. Worth it?

    People are gonna say no solely bc of the number of owners but focus more on the condition of the car and what options you want! GL

    I’m the 15th owner of my 2002 M3. Didn’t actually check before I agreed to buy the car and by the time I’d found out I didn’t want to walk away.

    Car is in absolutely stunning condition, FSH, tons spent on care & maintenance, with only 70k miles. Number of owners seems to have made no difference.

      This is encouraging. Thanks! Nice validation that the number of owners generally matters less for sports cars like the m3 or 911 or boxster simply because they’re enthusiast vehicles

    I dont think number of owners matters. Single owner and no upkeep is worse than multiple owners with regular maintenance. I have an 01’ 986 S and it says 3 owners, 35k miles but owners were my grandpa, dad and I. If you’re concerned, get a PPI. It may seem pricy, but worth it if it keeps you out of a bad car.
