It is true to some extent that the current value is due to the low mileage. However, when you consider that this car will, for quite some time have 100 thousand fewer miles than the average one around, and if it is still driven an average of 12000 miles a year, 10 years from now it will still only ahave 125000 or so, and if particularly well maintained, your initial investment should be well protected. And so what if you drop 15g's in value. Any other car would drop more in that time and you've had the added bonus of having owned a real fun car with relative low loss of $. All in all it seems like a good purchase compared to any other at 1/2 the initial cost. Cheers, Jim
