Reality Check:

You need to think of the Boxster more in terms of the 944 and 928 so far as the used market is concerned.

The Market doesn't like your Boxster as well as you do. They are generally viewed as unreliable, expensive to maintain, and underpowered... then there's that Chick Car thing.

That's not to say they're right, but that's the general view.

Porsche also made waay too many of them, putting the car in a Buyer's Market, not a Seller's.

Add in the factor that you need to find the right individual buyer for your car. This won't be easy, and you'll endure lots of low-ballers and bottom-dwellers along the way which is discouraging. But, if you have the time, you will find the right guy - just don't be in a hurry to sell. That's the key.

Cheers!
