Default No Regrets Here

I just returned from a nice drive. After hitting some twisties it occured to me that I am absolutley pleased with my Porsche. I sometimes think about the options, cost, model etc. but when I drive my car it all fades away. It's a great feeling to be have my dream car with no regrets.

Lori, whatever you do, don't catch a ride in a 997 Turbo. It'll be all over then... :-)

same you, same me! That's why i'm on my 3rd.. Thought about getting something else as a weekend car. Looked at the exige, the z06, and the m coupe but quickly decided a porsche is a porsche and one can never grow tired of it.

I've had my C2S about 9 months now. I wanted a street car that would be suitable, without mods, for casual track use (been doing DE events for about 6 years). I've had 8 track days with the car so far, and it's been perfect. Other than track pads and normal fluid maintenance, the only extra money I've spent is Cup car front lower control arms for more camber, but totally unnecessary for a purely street driven car. They really are great cars.
