Good luck!!!! You will like it more second time around (not kidding...I thought I was just being nostalgic but I seriously like and appreciate the 6-3 more this time around than I did the first time around!)

This is so funny! Never heard so many owners regretting selling a car and then buying another one.
I did the same thing. Can't stay away from a 996gt3.

I skipped the intermediate step. I put mine on the market, and then decide to keep it. Just got lucky with some original seats from 911-AL!

LOL - seems to happen fairly often over in the CGT forum also.... that says something very positive for both cars!

I'm on my third. First (Silver)in 08 and had it for 6 months. Not set up enough for me. Bought second one in 2013 (Seal Grey) could not get the first one out of my mind. Still not developed enough for me. Bought 3rd one (White) in 2015 which was set up perfectly, sold the Grey one shortly thereafter and have not looked back. Once you have experienced the perfection of this last raw analog factory P Car, you will never ever be able to forget it. It's the last authentic old school "Special" Porsche will ever build.

Oh, Al. What are we going to do with you? Haven't you ever heard the song: "Cheaper to Keep Her"?

You buying to keep or flip? If keeping, I know of perfect car. If flip, I can't help.

Made the mistake of putting my kids name(Connor) on the tag, now he says it's his, not that I plan on selling it.

It doubles as a school bus in spring!

Connor,

He calls it the Ripper! "Connor's Ripper" Ran out of room, hence the abbreviation. Funny part is I get comments " Corner Ripper" Too Funny!

Nothing like your kid asking to go anywhere anytime, just as long as we take the yellow car!

Now he's helping wrench, first tool he asked for was an impact for lug nuts!

TOTALLY AWESOME!
