Its just a mass of inanimate parts Phil. It doesn't live, breath, feel, or experience emotions.
Certainly. However I've had 3, 4, or 5 similar 911s in my shop (yeah, way back when, when they were much more hand assembled), closely grouped in vintage/mileage. Amazing how different they could feel just doing a test drive before turning it back to the customer.

Just over three years of stress-free ownership of my bone stock and still original, roughly 45K miles, self-maintained Porsche 993.

When something wears out or breaks, I'll replace it with another OEM part since I already know the last one lasted this long. It drives tight and holds the road as well as it should on public roads.
