So even with the add for labor, its still a great deal and a fun car. I bought the car basically blind, picked it up at the airport and drove home. I really knew nothing about 993's but having german car experience and other model P-cars, I figured I start with a car I didn't need to worry about. I drive it, track it and park wherever and love every minute of it with no worries. Would like to find a cheap 95 for track use and not continue risking the 4S, but Mama wants the house addition before I add to the car count
