It depends on the model whether they score their bores or not.Smartbear wrote:Hi, they seem to suffer from oval/scored bores causing oil burning & power loss-that's on top of the gearbox bearing which seems to fail randomly
I was considering a Cayman until I started to read of £10k engine rebuilds hitting owners-it doesn't seem rare either

The 987.1 Boxster and Boxster S (3.2) are much more reliable. The later 987.1 S 3.4 and 987.1 Cayman S are much more risky.
I'm going to wait a bit longer for a 987.2 with DFI engines - much better MMI and peace of mind with regards to engine issues.
