    You haven't lived until you do 90 mph in a turbo Porsche on US1 in Fort Lauderdale at 6 AM Saturday morning hydroplaning on the sprinkler puddles! I used to detail cars...

    Much rather have one of these early Porsches. That 88 was a killer, just no coax to protect ya against pedestrians.

    Well, I dated a very obnoxious Italian who thought his Ferrari entitled him to a lot more than his abrasive personality allowed him, so I may have some transference in my general dislike of low-slung, swoopy-looking cars. And obnoxious Italians.

    My baby brother would be lulled into naps with car rides; he's a terrible passenger as an adult, dropping right off to sleep instead of conducting his 'passenger duties' of navigator, conversationalist, and music-changer!

    At least he probably made a killer spaghetti sauce that was his mother's secret recipe, right?

    I definitely don't understand the concern for where to put "stuff" but I also imagine < 5% of owners have this as their only car.

    I've been long wanting a 996, replace/upgrade the IMS, and have a cheap, fun little car. With a little one on the way, that hunt quickly shifted from trading an extra car for an old 911 to dumping my CTD for the Tacoma. Someday... someday likely when the warranty and maintenance package is out on the current ride.
    Obviously not a golfer.

    He didn't even have that going for him! His friend had a restaurant, so we went there and he spent most of the mealtime talking with his buddy about other women.
