Ah the good ol boys club. It's never too far away. What would life be without the opportunity to crap on minorities while at the same time worrying about depreciation on a 10 year old car. All the success and all the winning gets tiring, I'm sure.

Completely valid question. I do this crystal ball calculation all the time, I don't care what the price of the car is, it's the entry vs exit point and running cost. Depreciation is the killer for most cars so a 997 can be a low cost option in the luxury sports car world.
Also how about a 997.1 that is lower on its depreciation curve? However, I do see that over the past few years 997.2 depreciation has slowed.
my sales pitch to the wife on a 997 as a third car is that her minivan loses more value than my 997.1 with low miles.

Whatever you do, make sure you get a white car. Depreciation is much better than black, cream, brown cars. I hear orange cars appreciate considerably .. like yuge appreciation.
