There are too many variables and the cars are optioned differently. Some will argue that options dont hold value. While that may be true, creating the car with after market options is even more expensive or just a PITA.

To your point more directly. Compared to resent years, there are not many 8 - 10 year old Boxsters for sale here in Austin. I looked at the Boxster market for about years 3 or so before purchasing mine about 9 months ago and still look often just to see what is going on. There were always about 6-10 to look at. Now, maybe one or two.
The dealerships dont seem to have many and the indy's are not listing any either.
Seems the 5 ish year old Boxsters are more plenitful right now and those are priced accordingly.

My observations are local to Austin. About 25 mile radius from near center of town.
