At the heart of it is whether, for about the same $$, I will have a better overall ownership experience with a low mileage 986 S or the higher mileage 996. 
 
BMUSSATTI, I am wondering whether you considered both cars.

I have ordered a new 987S. I take delivery in March. I only seriously considered the Boxster. I very-very briefly thought about a Vette, 300Z and BMW Conv.
Only test drove the Boxster.  It will be a toy for me and not a daily driver. 
I did not consicer the Carrera because I liked the Boxster best.
