I currently have a 2007 Boxster S. paid-off.
44,000 miles (warranty about to expire) - main reason for considering selling
PASM
Sports Chrono
Automatic - Tiptronic
Bose
CD-Changer
Power seats
Sports wheel
and some other minor options.

I paid $66K. Free title. Trade-in should be about $30K.
-----------------------------
A 2011 Boxster S (w/taxes) will run approx. $72K. Less the $30K expected trade-in will result as a $40K out-of-pocket.
PASM
Sports Chrono
Automatic - DoppelKupplung
Leather Pkg
Power seats
Sports wheel
and some other minor options.

Am I gaining anything by trading to the new model (w/new warranty), or should I just keep my current vehicle and hope there are no major repair requirements that will come up? What is the Boxster's reliability after 50K miles?

Thanks

Keep driving what you have...set aside some money and self insure your car warranty wise yourself.
