Nice pickup. Whatever happened to the red light reflector on the C4 or C4S? Or is that on another model?

The 997.1 did not have the reflector, it came back with the 997.2 C4(S) (see my avatar)

Sweeeet! Looks like a matched pair.
How many miles on the younger one?

Just over 40k and it looks new. Bought it from Mclaren dealership in SF. Can you believe it, someone traded it in on a Mclaren... Go figure.

Some people have too much money.
You'll have the new one into triple digit miles in no time. Enjoy. (on the beach)

Last I looked, (been a while though) the new Macca's don't hold value very well.
People are too scared to drive them every day and rich people don't want to be seen in them once the new car smell is gone.
Not like the Porsche riff raff who pay extra to drive old stuff.

Are you sure?
the "cheapest" 650S I could find on cars.com is $240k.
I don't factor in the 12C, which was McLaren's first road car after the F1 and really wasn't very good, so I would expect that these depreciate rather quickly

your Boxster had at least another 300K miles on it...
But a 9 year old car that still looks brand new is pretty smart.
I doubt a non-Porsche person could tell the difference between any 997 and the 991 if parked next to each other.
The wallet on the other hand will feel the difference.
P.S.
What do you California guys do with C4's? Go off road mudding?

Well,
#1: I like the wider hips of the C4S model vs. the "narrow body", and as we all know "hips don't lie" 
#2: With the 4WD I am the king of every wet track day  and it also has saved my bacon a couple of times on dry conditions
