I did research some CPO models but even still they were a bit more pricy than a new Z even with quite a few miles on them.

It's just one of those cars I love but would never actually buy because it doesn't present itself as a very good value relative to what else is on the market.

I'd love to have one... If I was a Porsche mechanic.

I think they're SOMEWHAT reasonably priced used from what I recall but the maintenance costs and price of parts would be the issue for me.

Why don't we compare 2013 Cayman to 2013 370z
