that sucks. I hope you get another one. I just sold my very beautiful 1970 911T to a fellow in Germany. It was tougher than I thought it would be , to see it loaded on the back of a truck and hauled away

Well right now I'm thinking SC a 3.0 car and a coupe. Kinda Outlaw, not perfect but well sorted. Black or silver. Still hauling the rig in the ol minivan. Parting was very difficult. I felt like Judas trading my long friend for a handful of money. My wife cried when he started it up to leave. I'm playing a gig tonight so I get to to let loose with a few hundred watts to ease my pain.

You know, maybe we should start an exclusive club...former longnose owners...

I know your sadness...I surely do.

Truthfully? Kind of miserable...but I'm not looking for another Porsche. Most of my emotional misery is based on pleasant memories of times long past. Those times will never return. I still believe I did the right thing. So, life goes on...I just ordered an expensive custom pool cue. The no nose club...I LIKE that!

But really...time for me to walk away, and not look back. For sure, keep the pleasant memories. But hopefully no more tears. Yeah, right...

Thats just reality and why so many of the cars are leaving our shores. That had to be realized when agreeing to a sales price, and hopefully you were compensated well for your car to reflect that reality.

That's true, and I was compensated fairly ...for a Targa, I got top $. I just was looking for a place to ease my pain yesterday and I didn't want to hear what you said at the time. Timing is everything as they say....yours was a little premature.
