For $80K the vast majority of the 997.2 Carreras are certified pre-owned, which extends the warranty to 6 yrs or 100K miles, and for any other you can buy a 3rd party warranty for about $4k if you want to sleep better every night. If you don't have $4k to buy a warranty, you shouldn't be buying an $80K car.
Even though I don't agree with you, I appreciate the fact that, like you, there are a lot of people (my dad included) that are willing to pay the premium to have the satisfaction of buying new. Thanks to this, people like me can keep finding awesome used cars.

Good Feedback and I agree with you..... And at least in the US, we have some AMAZING used cars.
My local Porsche dealer just sold a well optioned CPO 2008 911TT with 3K miles for $83K. I am sure M4 will turn out to be a nice car but I still would not spend 90K for a M car when I get something very close to new at a discount.
We will also have the very same problem when trying to sell used M4's...... No one is going to buy a used M4 (low miles) for 75-80K when there are 911's sitting out there.
