My 981 Boxster is four and a half years old, I've had it for three years, and it's done 38,000miles. Yes the car's great, apart from the paint work that is. The front of the car looks as though I spend everyday driving behind large trucks on freshly tarmac roads with loose chippings. The bonnet, front wings, bumper and even the door mirrors have chips, leaving the white undercoat shining through. I've looked at other Porsche's, but never seen any other in a similar condition. Is it the colour, metallic sapphire blue, or have I just got a bad'n. I'm seriously considering a respray and I'm sure you won't be surprised to hear that when I raised the issue at my nearest OPC there was a shrug and not much else forthcoming.
