I made an offer to a guy with a red 01 $500 less than he was asking. He didn't seem too interested. So I told him I was going to shop more...
I found these two cars locally:

2000 Speed Yellow Boxster S. 37kmiles. I talked the guy down to $26k from $28.
and a...
2001 Black Boxster S 34kmiles... same price. $26k down from $28k

Do either of these (pending ppi) sound like a reasonable deal?
They both carfaxed out okay... lease cars with low miles per year etc... no indication of wrecks etc. I did not see anything on the carfax that said that the Ballance shaft seals were ever replaced (That could be good or bad)

Anyway, what do you guys think?
I'm ready to purchase as soon as I feel I have found the DEAL I'm looking for.

Thanks.
