Years ago, WB's commanded about a $15k premium, so at 1/2 the mileage; and if you have that "lovin feelin" for a WB car, I say DO IT!

...22k km or 22k mi; both are low! 22k km = 13.6k mi

Don't think he mentioned anything about the other car being a WB…unless I'm missing something here?

You can just drive more and enjoy your car instead worrying about how many miles you have.

I don't see a point in that transaction unless the other car is a particular color you want or has certain options that you must have.

This truly resonated with me as a well stated and wise... It's a constant reminder to ask myself why I want "more"...

Wow. To each his own but I would think "most" prefer a black on black over red/tan if you ever were to sell. But the 2nd one then decide which one you want to sell in a year two. I did that. Just don't do what I did and sell it to cheap!

I just finished doing a varioram conversion on my 95. Its a nice add and makes the car nicer to drive. Total cost was about $2000 in parts and lots of personal time so say $4000. This puts you at a cost of $11,000 to fix your conscience. Is it worth it? I still strongly regret not buying the 97 NB that had 20000 more kms on it than my 95. It was a much nicer car and had many more options. In retrospect, I would do go for the 97 if it has more options and soothes your conscience. You bought the car to satiate your emotions anyway. Nobody needs a Porsche. We do it because we want to.
