Damn Ian, I am so sorry about what happened! Just for repetition's sake, I am happy that you are OK.

Well I think I'm going to get a first offer of 7K for my car, I think I might break down and cry right now.

I hate my life

Sorry about your loss.
Maybe it's a sign to upgrade to a 968!

I know it's tough, but it is just a car. There are others out there...

Hang in there!

Ok, well I'm going to try and look on the positive side of this, ok, well there is not positive side i'm going to loose a lot of money. But still, looking for a new car could be entertaining.

So now the question, what should I get, I don't think another 951 is in my future due to my very limited funds.
914?

Ian,

There's a 914 that has been in the newsletter for awhile around $3500 that sounds interesting. I'd check it out. I actually relly like 'em they handle great and a lightly modded one can look really cool as well.

come on luke I'm on a budget, I would love a 911SC, but cheap is going to be the operative word. I'm even considering the dark side (BMW e30).

E 30s are wonderful!

But I have seen a couple nice Sc's in the 8k range.
