Here is the 5-yr pricing trend showing mostly continuing decreases but there are a few upticks here and there...

Nice.

I'm curious as to the source if the data?

It's all based on MY and presumably some level of lower mileage associated with newer cars. Not enough performance difference between base and s to drive significant price differences within the same MY. These are quickly just becoming old cars. Pulled up next to a new model base civic this week. He beat the crap out of me until I could get it up into the higher portion of the power band but by that time we had run out of road to play with. OUCH!!!!!

Best to just give them a thumbs up and smile. Win or lose you didn't gain anything.

That's why you insist upon a "S" !

2016 Bas Civic has 158 hp. With the CVT per Motortrend Civi sport with 180hp the 0 to 60 is 6.8 seconds and the six speed is 7.5 seconds.

Econo cars nowadays can be surprisingly quick but losing to a base civic?

Either way, i have noticed the prices for 986's creeping up in Norcal but summer approaching seems to be the logical reason.

Ditto. Would love to find good source for vehicle pricing trends.

Hi 986 forum members, nice to be joining you! I have a 2011 Boxster base, red/black, 6MT. This little Porsche pastes a smile on my face every time I drive it. To me it seems like the new 718 hasn't caught on yet. Sales are down compared to 981 last year.

I was wondering if reduced 2017 718 Boxster sales translated into increased value for previous years. I did a web search and found that "Car Gurus" has a price tracker. It seems there may be a trend, but could be seasonality so perhaps too early to tell.

In my web search I also came across this thread. I joined the forum so I could share the link with you good folks!

Hope everyone is enjoying their summer, top down and smiling all the way!

Cheers, John
