2020 Taycan 4S

First world problem alert...I'm still no closer to making a decision about which Taycan (pre-owned) to buy. My problem: I like them all! White, black, blue, silver...Do I purchase the one with higher overall MSRP, more miles (26k), but at a Porsche dealership and thus CPO'd? Interior I like the best (it's not black!). Or do I purchase the one that still has 2 years of warranty left, similarly high original MSRP, but $5k less expensive than the one above, slightly fewer miles (17.5k), and not CPO'd (it's not at a Porsche dealership)? Both have all the things I'm looking for; one has a red interior and no Sport Chrono, and the other has a black interior but Sport Chrono. I'm gravitating toward the less expensive one, but wondering if it's a hassle to get non-CPO'd car. I've bought several pre-owned Porsche's, but never non-CPO. I also do not usually keep my cars for more than 2 years, so imagine I would probably trade for a newer Taycan when the warranty is about to run out. Perhaps I just answered my own question!

I would go with the CPO. Does that not provide some additional warranty (have not looked into Porsche CPO so I could be wrong) and the car went through an inspection to meet certain requirements.

CPO given Taycan is still in its infancy and potential for a few issues .... Saloon or CT/ST? If a turismo with panoramic roof then definitely CPOd
