We've come full circle...
The $82,000 boxster S is now available for sale at Pioneer...for $55,900
A damn good price considering the kit, if you can live with the color.
That's:
$26,000 in depreciation in less than one year..
$3,000 a month
$5.65 a mile
Link to sale

And there's no way they will sell it for $55,900. I bet if they sell it, it goes for less than 50k, possibly as low as 45k. I SURE hope they got some kind of non-refundable deposit on that thing - wow.

How much would a quality paint job cost to change the color?

I think the car will sell, just not quickly. It is a very nice car. It will take a unique buyer...who really likes the color green. Heck, we have a few Forum members here who are very passionate about green.
Worse case, a potential buyer can get a few more thousand off, and use that for a good paint job.

Wow.... I'm a bit speechless. I just got finished reading this thread and I must say that this really sucks for the dealership.
1st. I love green, but that green is pretty horrible. Like someone earlier said, it has no depth.
2nd. The options are such a weird combo, that I'd be surprised if anyone bought it.
3rd. That poor dealership. I wonder if we'll ever find out who ordered that car.

It would be a fitting color on a Lotus. Maybe if they added yellow stripes to the lower body with "PORSCHE" written in it, or a yellow racing stripe it would be more palatable.

Hey Chills and you were one of the guys (Grizzly the other) who I thought might like the color!
Don't worry about the Porsche Dealership...they sold this car once already...it has 4,600 miles on it! This is now a used car.

I'll give them 30k for it, put some yellow rally stripes on it.
