Matt, you should buy JimB's 968

He has it up for sale on KCWS board. One of the nicest 968's I have seen!

Is it me, or is the 944/968 one of the most comfortable interiors you've ever ridden in?

I don't know, my right leg would go numb after the first two hours of driving.

And without functioning cruise control, and having the pedal hinged to the floor, it made for rather uncomfortable long road trips because my foot had to be at the top of the gas pedal to be able to apply enough leverage--meaning my right leg could only be in one position for the duration of a trip.

When I drove down to Austin, around hour 11 into the drive, I perfected using my left foot on the gas, which was difficult because I had to keep my legs splayed to accomodate the steering wheel.

Other than the trip to purchase the car and the trip to sell it, the whole time I owned the car I kept all road trips to under 2 hours.

Now, my truck only starts to cause me physical pain around hour 15 of driving.

Nice car, nice price. Probably not much profit there though.

You could just keep it. Oh wait, never mind.
