I bought my 2000 S last Christmas for $12k and enjoy it but I already have another sports car, a 2005 Corvette that I bought new and kept nice, so I thought about buying a Ford Focus and trading in the Boxster. Initially they offerred $5k then went up to $7k but no more. The car has 106k miles, Tip, factory HIDs, leather. Only average condition but everything works and runs perfectly. No leaks, cold AC. The used car manager said it's hard to sell a high mileage Boxster in central Arkansas. No dealers and only one independent shop that works on them.
On the other hand, the dealership used car manager said the Corvette market is strong and there'd be no problem getting $22k for my car. Actually I haven't been driving the Corvette very much since buying the Boxster. So maybe I'll keep the Porsche since I can't get any money for it. I was expecting to get close to $10k trade in on the Boxster. Maybe I paid too much for it at $12k.
