BTW - the name of the thread should be: “why did you overpay for your clearly inferior 993?”

The “‘80’s” was the era of Gordon Gecko, “greed is good” & “conspicuous consumption”… Porsche somehow became a symbol of that even though close to 80% of them ever built are still on the road today, and continue to hold their value (some/many even appreciate) - that’s a value proposition if you ask me!
At least now you know how your neighbor feels about your Porsche… I’d say he’s a little jealous…

Quite frankly during that era, if you wanted a european sports car that stayed on the road and not in the shop, you bought a Porsche. Always loved the Italian sports cars but they were always in the shop. I learned my lesson with owning a Lancia.
