Will make the older Boxsters all the better of a value. The extra $20K will probably be in electronic assists, fancy trimmed cup holders and all the other things no one is asking for at the local autocross and track event.

Given the steep depreciation rate of new Porsches you're money would be better spent buying an air-cooled Porsche whose prices just keep going up and up. Can't blame Porsche though, with Cayenne, Panamera and the direction of the Carrera (longer than a Corvette, electronic steering, overly appointed interior) they're going after the Chinese billionaire and Rap Music/Sports/Celebrity crowd who never look at the sticker price or participate in high performance driving instruction.
Porsche is morphing from the Steve McQueen brand into the next luxury brand like Jaguar/Mercedes and Bentley.
