I've driven Laguna Seca and Auto Club Speedway with Speed Ventures in my 997 Turbo cab. No issues at all.

Great... this morning you guys had me looking at Vipers now I'm doing websearches for Boxsters... this BBS is going to put me in the poor house!

I’ve seen some in the $45k range, but that’s pretty close to the bottom and they’ve been there for a while. I think that’s one that long term is going to appreciate.
