Are left that are configured like that which makes them special. Loaded nav cars are a dime a dozen and in my opinion further compromised. The seating position compromised, weight compromises, dash and visibility Compromised. Hope that explains it. |

for me that stems from ONE thing and one thing only-----that i can see the artwork for the music i'm listening to. That's it. Worth its weight in gold. i think if some of you are barely driving the car, then a 'no nav' car is fine....but i DD the shit out of mine and can't imagine not having nav. |

BTW, i just noticed a 49k miles BSM 1M that has shown up at Porsche Roslyn. This dealership is ON MY WAY home every day so if anyone is interested let me know and i can stop by and take a look at it.
it looks like it is NO NAV from the equipment list. http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...97093490&Log=0 |

Indeed I saw that one pop up. Just did a vin check and no nav, no power seats. Vin check under optional equipment shows "hifi audio". I wonder if that means Harmon Kardon. Also says "Telematics access request,country-spec" which I could hope is bluetooth but I don't think it is.
But no price, and 50k miles in the Northeast, especially if it's always been in Long Island, that's some hard use. You can't convince me that it had never seen snow, pampered, etc. Only if it is deeply discounted. Which again, I doubt. They'll probably put it up at 50k and probably get it. The trashed 1M I saw at car max here last week is gone. They sold it. As long as suckers are out there I'm probably screwed. |

And be patient and open minded- it'll come. Fwiw- my father in law has a 2013 Boxster S with 50k miles... and it's pampered. Mostly warm-weather highway miles (he doesn't like flying), frequent fluid changes, garage stored and proper paint care (full PPF, bi-annual professional detail). You never know. |

For example, the interior in my car was in better condition than the other cars i'd looked at with half or even 1/3 the mileage mine had....and the service history was well documented. those are HUGE, IMO. |

We actually just took that car on trade and I was going to wholesale it. The car is in really good condition and has 49,xxx miles. Would you be interested in it? sounds like a possibility for someone to pick this up at a GOOD price if they are dumping it to wholesale soon. PM me if you want the Sales Manager's info. |

When I spec'd my car, the GM of the dealership came down to make sure I was serious - it felt like a job interview. He must have been worried about potentially getting stuck with a low content car. Normally that is a real risk for dealers. Turns out, low content is the preferred 1M spec in the long run. |

Good point. I guess in my mind I'd gladly pay 7k more for 30k less miles. Plenty out there, but not specced as i would want. I also grew up in New York, and I know the roads are shit. That many miles banging around long island just worries me.

well if you need me to check it out let me know. i literally pass the place every day on my way home from work. i wouldn't worry about the mileage. i would worry more about if it has been maintained well.

from that Porsche dealer:
"I have asked the past owner for some service records and will see what he comes up with. I don’t think I am going to keep the car for retail though so someone would have to make a move on it quickly." |
