Where can you get a manual V10 R8 for $80k? V10's all seem to stay well above the 100K mark with the V8's in the $60-80K mark.
There's currently not much on the market, but a few months ago there were a few at Audi dealers with <30k miles in nice, stock condition asking low-mid $80s.

Wow I check every now and then and never see V10's anywhere near that cheap especially the manual cars. $80k is a steal for one of those considering the most comparable car is a 6 speed Gallardo and those are 2-3x the cost.
If you think any corporation is "clean", you haven't worked long enough. They all do immoral or shady things (in the manufacturing sector, at least). When real money is on the line, they all bow to the financial pressure and try and minimize it.
A 981 Cayman is a gorgeous car - absolutely beautiful.
I thought the 981 was really a beautiful design when it came out, but it aged very quickly to me. I think when the other Porsches caught up design-language wise it looked a lot less special.
To me, peak Cayman was probably the 987 Cayman R. I drooled over this particular car when it was for sale, but it was WAY out of reach...damn Porsche tax.

This one was listed for...I wanna say 65k? With Porsche's, it's all about options. The one you posted has aftermarket seats and a PDK instead of the 6MT and OEM sport seats.
Also, 50-60k was out of reach as a 2nd car at the time, I was looking for something about half as much.
Was working - hence "super quick" google search. didn't even look at options or what else available.
sorry.
but yeah, limited edition models tend to hold value longer.
I loved the old NSX 10 years ago, now it’s literally car to stare at. Since I like driving my cars, I have no desire to own a paper weight. I also have no desire to invest in the NSX since I can make better money in other investments.
a much easier decision in Canada, a new NSX is well north of $200,000, a used old school NSX is $60,000 and up depending on the year. Dollar for dollar I'd take a used one first and pocket the loose change.
The problem with the new NSX is that my grandmother can drive it around any track in the exact same time as a professional driver just by activating all of the electronic gizmos, I think the old NSX would be more fun to drive on a track, for less money. I think the old NSX looks better / more exotic too.
The 2017 NSX is one of the MOST expensive cars in Hong Kong, even more that Ferrari or Lambo.
Last we heard it was selling for around $500k USD so it's a hot car over there but extremely limited.
There will always be nice cars to have in the $200k+ realm but few that offer the reliability. We own both the 1st gen and 2nd gen NSX's here and both are great cars for it's own merits. More than holds it's own in any comparable cost in this range, The only one we'd grab the keys to drive cross-country.
