Take the car I was looking at...It has 76K miles and not beat up at all. Thing is, no idea about water pump, thermostat and coolant. Hell, using OEM fluids (coolant and gear oil ) is a $200 bill without anything being broke!

Cheaper to keep her!
I hear you. Catching up and ongoing maintenance on a newer car that is still used with some miles can be a big cost, especially if like me you don't do the hard stuff yourself. In my fantasy, the 981 S is certified pre-owned with relatively low miles. It is a fantasy after all!
