Every car I’ve purchased was a keeper in my mind, and one I drove it 800 miles in 1.5 years thought I would like it ……but I loved well😎

This will go well above MSRP and the next owner will be #5, low miles and is the key not owners. I just posted as I have been looking at these for awhile.

I generally agree with you. Just wanted to say less number of owners is always a good thing but its very minimal. There is a reason why both BAT and Carfax emphasize one owner vehicle. But yeah, other factors (general condition of the car, accident hx and mileage) matter much more.

not sure if I should bite or run.

Id say just spend for a new one if thats going to bother you and dont look back. You'll love it.

I actually think that interior looks good. Wouldn't be my first choice but I like it.

For 99% of potential buyers, the solution with that car is to replace parts to swap the blue stuff with a sane color.

That buyer should be banned from ever spec'ing any Porsche. Just because you can, doesn't mean that you should.

I just spit out my soup. I tend to agree. I like a car I know can run hard.

More (anecdotal) evidence of car sales slowing. Did anyone get a big red bow on their new 992?
