$32K for a 986S doesn't sound so terrible to me when you consider that a 996 911 Turbo can be had for under $40K and that was a bonafide six figure exotic -- a true dry sump with GT1 race engine pedigree. not to mention the avearge owner pays for all the required dealer service due to being in a higher income pool than the average Carrera/Boxster owner who might skip it or DIY -- a definite draw for a used car buyer. Point is there are screaming deals all over the sports car map. Shop wisely and congrats.
