Nice buy back then huh?

If I could go back to 2012 I would not be buying Porsche's. Sure the returns been nice but there are a few stocks I'd prefer to have at 2012 prices over the cars.

I guess "decent mula" is a relative term. I like the car too but I'd be weary about smogging it in CA, wondering about an "open title" since the cars got ME reg and its in Cali, plus all the money it will take to sort it, makes me think its not going too high.
Car just passed CA smog earlier this month and comes with a clean CA title. Also comes with original seats and parts. A nice driver with proper mods. I'm guessing it will sell around $60k with fees. It's BAT so it will probably go for more.

The ad says the car sometimes stalls at a rolling stop and the seller attributes it to the lightweight flywheel. Does that sound plausible to you guys?

That's a frequent issue with the light weight flywheel. ECU needs to be programmed for the lighter flywheel.

Sept 2012

1 US Dollar = .98 CAD

Still a nice return if it fetches 60k (or more).
Almost doubling money (except for maintenance) and getting to enjoy it during those 6 years in a way that you can't when money is in an account.

I'm with you on some stocks like Amazon, Google and Apple!

I like the ABS and the Cooler switch - might add them to mine.
I definitely want to add an oil temp gauge.
