Much easier to justify an engine build when prices go up. Certainly would make my choice easier, although I hope I can get through our last car payments and wife's grad school before it explodes.
Yes, 996s all explode eventually. If it weren’t for the 72 virgin 911s waiting for me in heaven when mine does inevitably explode, I’d be driving a corvette. 🙄

It's a catch 22.
Back in 2014, one could build an S14 for an E30 M3 for $5000,
In 2020 now that prices are up and the new norm is present, that same rebuild cost you $20k.
Be careful what you wish for. I usually wish for my dream cars to be cheap and plentiful but it never seems to work out that way.

From what I've learned owning cars is that for the most part you don't usually come out ahead. Be nice to win one once in a while lol.
I sold my one owner with records C4S cab to them last yr, it was a seamless process. I'm in Fl and they're in Long Island. They sent me $500 by paypal to hold it and then wired me the money before the driver came to pick it up. No issues. I was skeptical as hell and even said it to them who buys a car without looking at it but I guess that's the old school model
What’s not to love?
Seal Gray is the color that won LeMans.
It’s a pretty color I suppose but it’s just way too common imo. if/when I’m on the market again I would not consider seal, arctic, or black (other than basalt).
