^^ I don't think Boxsters are being hurt on resale anymore than all the current crop of modern Porsches. They simply made too many cars until the economy collapsed. Too much supply and not enough people who are doing better now than they were 4 years ago. GT3 and 997 Turbo prices are falling fast and that's maybe two of the best Porsches ever produced.

I would venture to say that the average 1st time buyer of a second hand Porsche is NOT very knowledgable about the ins and outs of the car. Neither is the salesman who got them into the car any more knowledgeable. If people avoid Porsches it's more to do with a long standing notion that repairs and maintenance will be extremley expensive. That notion will probably never change.
