Hard to give advice or moral support without knowing more -

mileage
automatic or stick
how well maintained / number of owners
stuff you know you have to fix / replace
paint and interior colors and condition
cool options
IMS bearing fixed?



I think the '02 S is probably worth $2k or $3k more than the 99 base, if everything else was the same. Sure part of it is your driving style, but I also see how many of these cars you have owner before - I think the newer S is easier to resell and will hold value better.

Yet, it is priced $3500 higher (plus cost to replace IMSB - $3000-$5000).
‘99 IS the best year for the 986. Period. No debate. Because I said so.
