Having driven both the .1 & .2 I'd take the .2 with high mileage over a low mileage .1 any day.

I would say it could even be a hair too high, I remember the PCA article a few months back where the author was advocating manual non-S .2's being the best bargain for money. I want to say he payed about that for one with half the miles and im assuming less wear and tear. It was a good article, I'm sure one of the members knows what I'm talking about. Unless that article made a little ripple that upticked all the prices, I'd say 30-32. Which is great for us owners but I do sympathize with the people searching. I personally wouldn't ever buy a .1 unless it was a fire sale of a deal and I'm sure there's others. Everyone want's a bullet proof tiny drivers porsche. And that was only available in low production years 09-12. They really **** the bed with the IMS/RMS and the bores for 10 years. That's a lot of modern inventory I could never shop from my dream brand and I think thats a huge let down from Porsche. I couldn't afford to risk 35k on a .1 when i know a .2 for 50k+ S is a safer purchase. If the .1's were as reliable as .2's I would have bought a much cheaper one. Rant Over I apologize lol

This one is not for me, but I thought I'd pass it along as it may not last long. It has non-accident damage reported but the dealership says the former owner just had some panels resprayed due to rock chips (who knows). Either way, a pretty car if you are a wide body fan, with the correct transmission, CPO and under 18K miles:

It just appeared on national pre-owned search site, so I expect it was only listed within the last day or two.

It does have 55k, but this would make an excellent driver car and would be worry free to put miles on it since it already has a hit on the Carfax.

UPDATE - just spotted the accident's reported in the carfax. Twice in 2018, front left, maybe not big deal...

No affiliation to this one, but it looks like a great car, and is kind of tempting when there is snow on the ground and my C2S is parked.... Happy to go check it out if anyone needs eyes on it.

What’s a good price for a .1 S with sport seats, 18k mi, pristine? Low $50s?
