It seems these have bottomed out on depreciation and are hovering around $32.5K depending on mileage. The special editions of 2008 (there were 3) tend to price out at the top of the 2008 price guides for Ss but have a hard ceiling with the 2009 S. No one will pay ultra top $ for a 2008 when they can have a 2009 S with the 9A1 engine instead unless they desire the uniqueness of a Limited Edition or Design Edition 2 or RS60. However, when you add up all the special S models of 2008, there are probably double available compared to 2009 Ss. Production #s for 2009 were down significantly due to the stk mkt crash (1900 total Boxsters sold in US, prob 650 were S). There were 250 LEs, 800 RS60s, and 500 DE2s (not sure how many US).
