I have told him that his car will rot if it isn't driven...... and so far nothing has worked!

I thought if I could get him to bet me I had a chance win and he would be compelled and honor bound to "pay up" on the bet by driving 2,000 miles next year. I'm at the end of my rope! I fear that all is lost!

In 2008, you and I will be be in the same boat as far as driving the Porsche. You will have a 996 but probably won't drive it much because you won't get the opportunity to do so. I will no longer own a 996, and will want to drive it every day. How ironic is that!
