PARANOIA CITY GUYS
It is truly a problem. One of the wonderful thing about the 911 is that it is neat to share the pleasures with others. Its cool that the wife appreciates the car. But PARKINGS LOTS! YIKES! OH, MY GOD! SHOPPING KARTS! ELDORADO DOORS! But you know what? All that is heck of a lot less than the bite of the BIG D! Talk about being "penny wise and pound foolish."
There are all those hazards out there and we have to learn to deal them. For me that kind of paranoia just isn't worth it. Twenty some years ago when I went to the Kruse auctions and saw all that overly restored or original stuff, it just made me depressed. The most beautiful cars to me are the ones with the patina of age and not much worry factor. That's the problem with most of the Ferraris that one finds on the market today. A car that looks like it is used is the one that makes me feel good. Take care, but lose the paranoia.
