2003 cab

I recently purchased a 2003 cab in mint condition, I have been told by other Porsche owners that 33000 miles is a lot for that year. Most sports cars are driven only 8 months of the year up here in Canada. Anyone have an opinion? I paid 60k Canadian or 48k American. Maybe I paid too much?

When I bought my 03 Cab it had 24k miles now have 36 after 14 months. Thats nothing for a P Car. You want some mileage so you know that the car has been driven properly. You dont want a car w almost no mileage thats been sitting around. Sometimes w those low mileage cars you have problems. Post some pics my man of that Cabby

Please,

My 03 cab was bought in 05 with 29,000 miles. It now has almost 54,000. I feel sorry for those owners who are scared to put miles on their cars and let it sit in their garages while it continues to depreciate away. What's the point in just owning one if you can't enjoy it?

That's why I went to a coupe...I found that I was not driving the car enough when I had a cab...I now drive mine all the time and regret not putting more miles on the cab...
