Need some new Boxster buying advice

FTD...good point.

A 1-2 year old CPO car with low miles makes a LOT of sense when you look at the lower cost and warranty.

I've been watching this thread with some trepidation.

My '99 is 'showroom new' w/ only 20k on the clock (actually 19,657 one-owner miles), and totally trouble-free.

In fact, on a drive this fall, I had a couple approach me in the parking lot and ask how many months I had owned it. When I said: "it's 10 yrs. old", they reeled and said that it looked brand new, that they couldn't believe it - I had to show them the door pillar sticker to prove the mfg. date.

Publishing all these bad thoughts about the early models, which to me has been a wonderful car, can only lead to more depressed prices when I decide to sell, which will probably be this spring... Thanks alot you guys!

I won't be upgrading to a newer Box either... been there, done that. The improvements are, to me, marginal at best and go hand-in-hand with substantial increases in MSRP.

I'll likely go for something else... I mean life's too short to stick with one model or one marque.

Now, if only Aston prices would only reflect the current downturn in the market... I would be sooo there...

Here's a link to Porsche's website to view dealers inventories of new, used, and CPO cars. It takes a few repetitive clicks to go from dealer to dealer, but think of it as a treasure hunt. :dance:

BTW...
I was invited to play in the SAS Championship's Pro-Am a couple of month's ago, so I got to enjoy Prestonwood CC. Very challenging. Played one round with Hale Irwin.

My friend got a 1 year old V8 Vantage and he paid 50% off the original price.
