Help me decide!

I am buying one of two GT350's.

Car 1 - 2016, 37,000 miles asking price is 51.9

Car 2 - 2019, 16,000 miles asking price is 64.9

Both are spec'd almost identically with the exception of the color. The 2016 is classic white with blue stripes and red calipers. The 2019 is Blue with a dark grey stripe and unpainted calipers. Sorry for not knowing the actual names of the colors, I'm new to the GT350 scene. Both are clean car fax. I have heard some stories about the motors on the 2016's, but how prevalent is it? I am more worried about depreciation than the outright cost of the car. I feel like the 2019 will hold value better than the 16, but I plan on driving it. It's not a daily, but I will probably do 4-6k a year on it.

WHICH ONE?!?!?!?

Thanks!

Coming from a Ferrari

Hey, everyone. I posted the same over at r/Porsche_Cayman but figured I would ask here too

I currently have a 2005 f430 that I am selling because the prices of them have gotten ridiculous and I can't justify keeping it anymore. I am thinking about replacing it with a 981 or 718 Cayman S. I would also be open to a Boxster of the same spec, or even a GTS (turbo 4). I know they say that "all car guys eventually get a Porsche" but I am nervous. What can I expect as far as engagement, fun, specialness, etc? I will get much more use out of the Porsche as I only put about 1800 miles a year on the Ferrari. Every mile is an event, though. Thoughts from anyone who has experienced both?

A few must haves an a few really wants:

Must be a manual

Would like PASM and Sport Chrono, in that order

Would you go for a Boxster GTS over a Cayman S, as they are about the same price (the turbo GTS, not the 4.0)?

Thanks all!
