The event is catered and this gives me an opportunity to grab lunch, talk to car guys and look at cars. There was nothing under $150K, several at the $200K and over plus on 918 Spyder under a car cover. Since new was out of my price point, I looked at used. Not much there either - all high priced less than 2 years models. There were no Boxsters or Caymans.

I know everything is market driven and I guess the market has moved beyond me.
They make big money on the CPO stuff, so nothing used is less than 2-3 years old. It's pretty much the case with most new car dealerships anymore.
