well done!
I also planned to retire this year (at 50), but the wife and my partners convinced me to stay on part time --6 months kind of thing-- until 55
Everyone told me I would be "bored 18 inches of snow in my yard and all 3 sports cars in storage....

and on my way to Barber Motorsports in an hour for Masters class...at least its in the 60's there!

Retiring by 41 is quite an achievement. Congrats! Time to really enjoy the RS. I don't plan on fully retiring until 55, meaning selling my business' also.

Oh, back OT and the question "So what does this mean for 991.1 RS??"...

The RS is old lava trash now and the car and prices are toast, it's just a mash up of carbon fibre, magnesium, and aluminum crud! Lucky if you can swap it for a miata!

But, I'll keep on loving it...and I'm not the only one out there!

Here's one from yesterday.

Yes, It has absolutely a piece of trash now. I even wonder if the trash man would even take it, if I leave it out there. I mean just look at it.
