Default Hello

It's been a while since I was last on the board but I wanted to say hello. A couple of years ago I had just bought my third p-car, a beautiful 02 C4 cab only to find out a month later that after 26+years my soon-to-be-ex wasnt quite as married as I was. With three sons in college and financial beating of the divorce the car had to go.

Two years later it's time to get back to who I am an what I know. Looking for a C4 cab, preferrably a C4s. Any guidance would be great.

Nice to be back.

Welcome back. You should be able to find a great deal.

What makes divorce so costly?

Being from Cleveland you know it's tough when you start to pay attention to the Bengals! I was a Browns season ticket holder for 5 years and finally couldn't take any more.

there's a sweet 04 C4S Cab (Tip) w/ low miles // alot of options in St Pete, FL. asking 50K listing just ended on ebay IIRC yesterday. 800 586 2836. I have no connection to seller, heck , I tried to figure a way of trading my car for this one... Edmunds price on this car was in the $41-45 K range, but it didn't factor in all the options.

Welcome back, buying another Porsche should go a long way to help improve your perspective. I put 2 sons through college (private colleges) so I can sense your position. Still with W1. I'd say that you can find a lot of choices if your aiming for a C4.

Welcome back and sorry you had to be Porsce-less for so long. Been there, done that, still there... being Porsche-less that is.... not wife-less.

I'll keep an eye out for a C4/C4S Cab for you. It might help if you could give us a ball park dollar figure you are willing to spend.

Thanks all. ROK, there's only one thing worse than having someone who doesn't appreciate anything you do for them deciding to divorce you, it's if they decide to stay. Rough 2 years but it was worth everything and more to lift that weight off my chest.

time to live!
