What would be a reasonable price for a 3/4 year old Boxster?


We're talking about 2000 and newer models with the 2.7L engine or the S? Depending on mileage, the base Boxster runs from mid-to-high 20s for 2000. Some people advertise in the 30s but these cars are too plentiful to pay a premium for one. The 2000 Boxster S runs from the low-to-mid 30s. The newer cars, especially those still within factory warranty, fetch more. Personally, I'd avoid a high-mileage Boxster for now, no matter the savings. It's easy to find low-mileage, well-cared for cars and we don't know how well these engines handle the upper ranges yet. Emanuel

I just bought a late 1999 Boxster with 30,000 miles on it for $25.7k. I live in the Bay Area, so that adds a bit of a premium. But I don't think I overpaid.

IME, there are far more Boxsters in the Bay area than other parts of the country, and the market is more competitive there ad prices are lower. We got a better price and had much more selection buying (a used one) there than up here in Seattle.
