I wouldn't trade the Ferrari experience I had, but I truly missed the Porsches. They are in my blood.
If you're the same way, buy a Ferrari, but hang on to the Porsche. You may want it back someday.

That’s the kind of stuff I need to hear. The reason I like the 993 is I have no problem driving it to work (like today, for example). It blends in with traffic, there’s plenty of them around (most people don’t know the difference between a 993, 996, 997, etc) and it doesn’t really draw attention. It’s pretty darn reliable, too. I’d love an old Ferrari but I have a feeling the experience would be the opposite.
I still want one...
