Like Porsche guru Bruce Anderson always says, "Buy the latest model, best condition car you can afford."
Ultra-low mileage cars (say 3k miles or less per year of age) can result in paying a large premium for the low mileage, which then means that putting on more mileage erodes your investment in a hurry. In other words the only way to protect your investment in an ultra-low mileage Boxster is to not drive the car.
On the other end of the scale, high-mileage cars can be a hard sell. I have seen this on 911s, where it is much easier to sell a 90k mile car than it is one with 110k. One hundred thousand miles seems to be the magic number.
If you buy a 65k mile car and drive the hell out of it, you could reach that magic number in as little as a couple of years.
