Reasons to Love the 993 Version of the Porsche 911

Painful watching that poor car running at 2,000 RPM's in the right hand lane, and what looks like 6th gear at 60 MPH.
"Rarer model or turbo or targa...they are worth so much money." Huh?

LOL - completely understandable, and no offense to targa owners intended. Leaving subjectivity aside, however, the suggestion that targas command a premium like a turbo is simply misinformation.
