Several factors will crater the older Boxster values IMHO.

Quantity-There are a TON of Boxsters out there.

Quality issues-the older Boxes have them in spades and the word is getting out. This is NOT a car to have with 120K miles on it for example.

Maint/repair costs-Porsche reputation preceeds.

Alternatives-There are increasingly more cars of similar ilk to buy.

I could be wrong but the lack of exclusivity and power in the older Boxes will hurt values.

Having said that, if I could buy a $15K Box that looked and ran good and didn't scare me to death, I would.
