The other cars we okay but none of them are as fun as the boxstsr!

I'm starting to research just how cheap I can find a CPO boxstsr for

Most dealers seem to have 2006 and 2007 used ones and the cheapest I saw was 37000 or so. I went online and saw an 03 that was 24999.

I then saw on the Porsche site the "preferred lease" and it says you can lease cars up to five model years old

If I bought used, I would probably try to sell before the waranty expired so why not just lease a low mileage used one and turn it in when the warranty is up?

Are the terms on these preferred leases of used cars terrible? I haven't had a dealer run numbers

I was hoping it might be a bit cheaper way to get into a used boxstsr and have a warranty
thanks

I may be wrong, and you guys jump on me with both feet , if I am but I believe the max TIME on a CPO car is 6 years from delivery date, and 100k miles. So even though you get a CPO 2003 car, it would run out on the delivery date in 2009, regardless of miles.
It's up to individual preferences, but I would be looking for 987 anyway.
I've seen some pretty interesting numbers on 05 base models.
