I'm keeping an eye on the forecast, and will make the call on Friday if putting the insurance back on for the weekend.

Last year the insurance was back on the car on Mar 9th, and the road was pretty clear by then, so it would be just about 3 weeks late this year.

Nice!!! I drove one of those a couple years back before buying mine. Awesome power, simply feel it wherever in the range you are. I find myself thinking about a Turbo or GT3 though haven't driven one of those yet.

imo if i had your car, i dont think i would upgrade. great balance of reliability, beauty, performance + sophistication. the turbo would be too hardcore for me.

Sunday looks like a good day.

With some rain later this week and some mild temps...could clean the roads up nicely.

Its only tuesday though. Forecast could change to -15 and a blizzard by the weekend.

that was my thought when comparing both. I don't think I'd ever get rid of my first 911. I'd like to add another in time. Maybe my mind is wandering because I haven't driven it in months.

don't say that it actually might happen

Now says mostly cloudy for Sunday and not as warm.
