My Dad never really got into the 911s... he had a '63 356 that was totaled in '65 and bought what is now my 356C to replace it. He grudgingly started looking at 911s in '84 and in '88 bought a '84 turbo look coupe to "replace" the 356, even though he never really drove much. When he did drive, he drove the 356 more often, until his ALS (lou gherig dis.) made it impossible to work the 911 clutch, and then he was done driving the 356 a few weeks later for the same reason.


I think now you'll find 2 kinds of folks - those that want the latest/greatest every so often, and those who have found perfection in what they purchased 5, 10, 20, or 42 years ago... That second group has a subset, where there will be more cars, many newer/newest etc. but they will always have that one classic at least, if not that specific car then one of the same era/generation.
