Jerry is selling because he sees the bubble bursting soon. I would if I had those cars. Make no mistake about it, money is money.

^ Agreed, many asset bubbles including cars, reason that I moved to all cash...instead of the same mistake I made last time. There is a storm brewing in the financial markets...NOT different this time

If the 75/77's with thermal reactors and 7 blade fans made it to iconic collector status, I guess there could be hope for non mezger 996/7's 30 years from now.

I love rowing gears and my '09 TT MT Mezger will likely never part from me. If it's worth a bunch for my widow someday, that's cool, meanwhile really don't care.
