So, there are people like me who will pay a premium for the RIGHT car.

I didn't pay as much as the car listed above, but I payed more than $20,000.

But, for me, it was the EXACT Boxster I wanted to own and I have been enjoying every mile since.

Cheers.
Agreed. I wasn't inferring that the right car won't get as much money as the market demands, just that the car in question was almost $10,000 higher than any other 550 currently for sale. And the last one on Ebay went for under $20k, albeit with 62,000 miles.

If I had the extra cash (and room in the garage), I'd likely pay a premium for the right 550 or 2011-12 Spyder as well.
