If you can wait til winter... inventory sits and prices drop.
Coming out of this winter, many people who depended on their performance cars as actual transportation were brought to their knees. The higher performance the car, the better the deals.
Take your time. Even if you intend to spend the same am't, you can get something with fewer miles and maybe an extra option or two. Add in the savings from not needing major service and you're good to go.
I bought in Feb/March and by mid-April cars with more miles, which were older and sometimes less-well equipped were priced 4-5k more than I paid.
Good luck. Chasing down the right one is fun (and frustrating, but that makes it rewarding).

How do you know that the 60k service was not performed? - I asked the dealer, and then called their head of service and he said that it had not been done, and was not scheduled either.
