I've had the Boxster for over three years now... I got talking to the wife this weekend about it. She knows how bad I've always wanted a 996... and the prices are pretty attractive right now. You can get into a 1999-2002 with low miles for mid 20's. So now I'm torn... I hate selling cars too... it's a pain in the rear. I have no idea what I could sell my Box for. It's a 2000 with 61k, well cared for. The only issue is the gas tank only fills to half. I would have to discount the car or get that fixed. So I'm not sure what to do... I'm sure Porsches aren't selling like hot cakes either. Maybe a trade to a dealer would be best, but they wouldn't give me anything for my car I'm sure.

Anyway, just wanted to get opinions...

Thanks.
