The 2003 example from Nashville has upgraded wheels and an aero kit plus a bigger engine, glass window roof, etc. To get the car you posted about originally to the level I'd demand before driving it could cost $3k. Brakes and tires and engine problems are kinda important.

By all means spend $200-300 on a PPI for the car you finally decide on after driving several.
Denver runs high. Not a ton of inventory here. Last summer when I was Boxster shopping I was looking in CA because the price difference more than offsets plane ticket and the drive back home.
