I bought an 08 911S cab new, and my 2012 911 4S cab was new also. They were deals I just couldn't turn down.

Definitely used . . . I saved $72K off the original $124K sticker of my 997 and the car was only 8 years old with 17K miles. For me it's hard to justify the price of a new car that I use as a toy unless it has some future investment potential such as a Ford GT or perhaps a 911 GT3RS (unfortunately I missed the buying opportunity on both of those . . . oh well).

Used 20k miles with very clean dme. 2nd owner was very meticulous in caring for the car. Lots of paperwork.

Used 2010 C2S with under 3K miles for just under $80K, MSRP close to $110K. I feel bad for the person that bought it New. With the CPO I even got a better warranty than the original owner.
