944 S2 Cab's are fairly rare cars to begin with...

pretty much any early 90's porsche is a rare car as the 944 was being phased into the 968 (which didn't sell any better) and the 964 model 911 was expensive and receiving mixed reactions from the public. Boxsters are much more common than any of those cars so the market it somewhat saturated and the demand is low. Corvette's (for reasons I cannot fathom) have ridiculously high resale values I assume because it is one of the few american sports cars available besides the viper.
The build quality is poor, they squeak, rattle, and for being such large cars, have absolutely no interior room (C4's especially) but there is something about them that attracts buyers. I am not convinced the IMS issues have done as much damage to the resale value of the boxster as some think as most buyers really do not do much research when purchasing a car and the IMS issue is really only well known among enthusiasts and current owners.
