Don't tell your problems to people. 80% of people don't care and 20% are glad you have them.

Secret is to buy an older Porsche. So that when you sell it after driving it for ten years, it's worth even more

I bought a 2007 Cayman S in 2013 with 27K miles for less than half the price it was new. It's almost immaculate. It's a driver's car. Mid engine (unlike the 911), so easy and fun to drive. I laugh maniacally every time I drive it. I drive it almost every day and park it on the public street in front of my house.

@Darby_Crenshaw - funny you should post that pearl. Bought a used 1970 911 Targa in 1974-drove it (daily driver) for 29+ years-engine fire was the end. Sold it to the insurance company for a few K over what I paid-but in inflated adjusted terms I lost my a$$ just like any routine auto deal.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood.

You buy a coupla few bottles of the old stuff as a package deal, drink a third to half, and sell the rest
When you buy at the top of the market (the best or most in-demand stuff), it may seem expensive, but prices rarely go down.
My old man bought a car for $35.
Restored it, drove it. We'd go get fried clams. He once drove it blind folded as I (age 13) told him to steer "more left" (or right) in order to avoid woodchuck holes in the field
sold a few years ago for $99k
it still took me twenty years to learn.
I passed up so much crap that could have tripled my money. Instead i did the 401k thing. Safe. But boring

Stike - what car did your old man buy for $35? Model T? Sexy Italian job?

@nolaegghead
I wasn't there to see the purchase (obviously), but my grandfather said he paid $425.00 for a new A model. Wish I still had that one. It would be worth far more than that today.Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

I have always thought than the Cayman is a greatly under appreciated car. I also drive a mid engine two seater - Audi R8 six speed MT. Some days after a tough workday, I get in and just drive. It can be a sanctuary with that engine right behind your head making all those great V8 noises.
Anyway - congrats on that Cayman.Winnipeg, Canada -
@kthacher Sweet! Those are bad muthaflippers. I used to have an A8 and an Audi GT. Not in that league by far. That's an exotic.______________________________________________I love lamp..

Since it is Thurs (close to Friday) and the climate forum is history- there is a whole lot to be said for the friggin enjoyment and power that comes when you stomp on the accelerator of a tuned V-8 auto engine. Sadly such an experience will soon go the way of the buffalo.
