I have gone off the deep end. If/when I sell, someone will have a very well sorted car on their hands for a fraction of what it cost to build.
who am I kidding though . I'd do it again. Probably would have ponied up the cash for a 3.8 with ITBs.. I'd reconsider a color change, and deleting the sunroof and drip rails too.
In my own defense I was the "victim" of a bad ppi. Be patient and the right car will come.
You have one of the most badass 964s in the Northeast.........can't be disappointed in that! Though I'm sure by now you could have been into a 965 for the same money!
On the topic of cabs.......I too much prefer the original lines of a coupe, but the cab is something every 911 guy should experience. Wonderful sounds, and open air motoring in a smooth 964 is a hoot. I almost kept my 964 cab, but it would have been at the cost of a D. Morris hardtop to retain some of the look of the coupe. Best of both worlds.
determined? not really.
simply replying to the observation that cabs are so much less expensive.
one of the reasons: ugliness, comparatively speaking.
the other reasons are certainly less subjective. i.e. wind noise. water ingress. lack of structural integrity, less safe, cooked guts, etc ......

Ha thanks. There's a lot of cars I could have end in for the $$ but I love my 964. I have that wing by the way, you never texted me.
FYI, cabs are not half the price...like seriously. They are over $70k cdn$$$. I had a coupe and prefer my cab for the looks. Its all about preference. We know they are cheaper, marginally.
