I guess….

…..I’m not being clear.

These 986’s have engines that cost $30,000 to replace.

If you bought the car for $10,000, and the engine grenades, it will cost you three times as much to repair it as it did to buy it.

This scares people away who are looking for a cheap sports car to tinker with and drive on weekends.

That’s all.

And yes, I bought a very clean, low mileage, well cared for, 2004 “50 Years of the 550 Spyder Edition” Boxster S.

I bought her in 2015 and have put 50,000 miles on her since.

I love this car.

Cheers.
