Friends do what they have to when needed. Women perceiving their butts as being important to men makes them think we care how their butts feel riding on a stiff suspension. Fat chance especially if their butts gotten fat.

Nice 968's are still in demand -not dogs
Agreed. I sold my last one to buy the 996. While it depreciated while I owned it for 6 years, it still sold for a strong price.

Speaking of that topic, don't you just hate it when they ask:

Wife: "Do these pants make my *** look fat?"

Me: "No Honey, they don't!"

Me thinking to myself: "Your *** is doing that all by itself!" hee hee

I just hope I never make a mistake and say that last part out loud!

That car price reminds me of a car that was on eBay when I was looking for mine this past year. It was a 99 with over 60,000 miles and just over 6,000 miles on a new engine that was replaced under warranty. It had some suspension mods and an extra set of wheels. I called up the seller to ask some specific questions and he said that he needed to get at least $35K. Wow! I told him that I was willing to pay a fair market price but he was way off. He said he needed to get that out of the car. It's amazing how out of touch some people are.

That one is tricky due to all of the mods. The parts cost alone would seem to make up the difference between this car and a stock car - perhaps even more. If you want them the price hike over a stock car might be worth the extra money. Then again, the question of who did the install and the overall quality becomes tricky. And just what exactly is a 'race suspension?'
