We have a 2015 S we bought CPO at roughly 55k miles. At close to 90k it has been a bit of a nightmare. Timing cover started leaking after 85k, water pump, coolant pipes, crankcase breather system. Those things are when, not if. Just the drive belt at an independent that is way cheaper than the dealer was $1,000. Something that took 15 minutes on my 996. The whole front end has to come apart. I would sell it and get an Acura but it isn't worth much. The driving experience is great. The interior wears like iron. In many ways it still looks new. But, the packaging makes maintenance and repairs under the hood a nightmare. We also had a PDK failure under warranty on a unit that had all of the scheduled maintenance done at the dealership by the original owner. My wife loves it. It's hers. But she has brought up dumping it after the last go round at the mechanic.
