Yes, my wife showed a complete lack of understanding when I tried to tell her that her CLK would have to go in the driveway. Last pic together:



That's water on the garage floor from the last wash before I delivered it to new buyer. Or tears.

- manual , the last one
- modern (esp, 4wd, airbags, etc)
- still looks like a proper 911 from the back
- not too many made (manual) and most are used today as a normal car. making the 'nice' ones hard to find.
- drives like ... well you know if you own one. It's no GT.. but still, as a car for the road there is no equal.

Those who want to drive, drive !
Those who want to look and drive a little , do that !
Those who just want to look, fine too !

You can't go wrong with this car
I agree. So far I have not been able to scratch my itch for a 911TT, but when I do it will be for a 997TT for the reasons listed.
