Because in 3 years, your still going to have a car worth around 15k if you bought the used one, where you walk away with nothing if you leased the new one. And they're both essentially the same car.

Yes. I own mine free and clear now. Looking for a used 993 C2S now to add to my collection. Specifically a 1998 coupe. They unfortunately are not as cheap as the Boxsters.
