Used Car of the Day: Is a $78K CPO Porsche 718 Cayman GTS Your Speed?
Sometimes, used-car prices cause one's eyes to pop. That is the case here, with this 2018 Porsche 718 Cayman GTS. It's certified pre-owned, and at $78,000, it's not cheap.
The car is still under factory warranty, but not for long. However, the CPO warranty is good til 2025. There are 43K miles on the clock. The car has the sport SPASM suspension, Apple CarPlay, premium package with sport seats, heated steering wheel, and lane assist.
The owner is offering a winter wheel/tire set.
A reminder that this feature isn't an ad -- we're not trying to sell this car. But if we were, would you pay that price for a late-model CPO Cayman? Sound off below.

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

- Tane94 Former CEO Alan Mullaney brought back the Taurus nameplate and ditched the CVT for a regular automatic tranny. Both were good moves. Sadly few 2008 and 2009 Taurus models were built as the Great Recession began.

Aren't toy cars by definition those with 2 seats?
The market for late model Porsche sports cars is nothing but strong now. Much of that is driven by the year plus wait for a new one, and in the 718's case, the changeover to the EV version in two or three years.
The price on this car is not really out of line.
