Default Trying to get back in a 911

I sold my 911c4 about 2 years ago...now I regret doing it. I bought a Viper to replace it...and that did not go so well. I wish I would have kept my 911 instead...oh well, live and learn.



Is she around here???

alot of Vipers end up in frame alignment shops after being introduced to light poles and trees and such. We can avoid all mention of said topic if, well you know.

I have the Viper on autotrader (zip code 66062) - it is the only 98 GTS in the area. I just slapped on some HRE's and that will probably make me want to keep it for...oh, say another month or so...

I just realized I posted this in the completely different forum...I miss the 996 so I will probably end up getting one of those again, or just make the bump to a 997 turbo...so many options right now I am getting all sorts of headaches...

Well glad to hear you didn't wrap it around a pole or anything. The local guys here ( with money unlike myself ) were just invited by Porsche to the Porsche Roadshow being held at Mosport. It is being put on by Porsche AG and they get to tak ethe latest cars around the track by themselves and with factory drivers. They have ll come back withe eyes rolled into their skull at the unbelievable performance of the new cars. I am sure you will enjoy the hunt.

Now is a great time to buy a Porsche. I'd go with a 997. It's better in every way to a 996.

I was having a discusion with a buddy who was telling me the 996 is truely "unappreciated" I told him if that was the same term as "depreciated " then he is absolutely right .... he hasn't spoken to me since ...
