Most if not all here have had a taste of Porsche ownership or other classics. What was the moment you decided it was no longer for you? When did you decide you didn't want to dedicate any more time or money to taking care of your car? When it was sold off, did you regret it?

Over the last 15 years of owning the 911, my husband and I rehabbed just about everything but the paint. But about 4 years ago, I finished a 2 year engine rebuild (I know I am slow but was trying to do everything right). Fresh off the break in period, I threw a rod. I was heartbroken. We dropped the car off at Black Forest Racing in North Carolina, purchased a new case and had them do another rebuild. Since that time, I had a hard time working on anything in the garage. And even though, Black Forest Racing did a great job on the rebuild, I haven't driven the 911 more than a dozen times in the last few years. My husband has continued to drive, maintain and tinker on the 911 and the other cars without me.

Well, yesterday, something happened in the garage that I think has turned my husband's views and as we sat for dinner last night the discussion came up about selling cars: the Lotus, the 911, and possibly the 930. Just simplifying our lives.

So, back to my original question. What made you decide it was time? Were there regrets?
