What ever model you do finally acquire, you will be surprised at how advanced they are. They seem to be one of the more advanced cars on the road. They had various systems in operation, well in advance for the year models. Things that are just now becoming standard on most cars, have been in use since the late 80's. I guess that is what they mean by, "The Ultimate Driving Experience" and the Porsche is, "Except No Substitutes" both of the mean what they say. I really feel lucky to be able to own and drive two of the best, that are on the road. I was very impressed and lucky to have owned a Ferrari 288-GTO. It was an awesome ride, but I am glad that I sold it at a "Concours d'Elegance" show in Dallas, in 1995. It was a sweet car, BUT A VERY tempermental beast. Porsche maintenance and repairs, are nothing as compared to the 288. Mine was extremely clean and almost like new. It still only had about 18,000 miles on it when it hit the auction block. But, I was very happy to see the cashiers check at the end on the show. I drove it to Dallas, and I knew that it would sell, because I had already booked the return flight home, before I ever left. The casinos on the coast really liked it when I brought it down there, all of them had a special parking place, right in front of the entrance doors. Good eye-candy, and they would always comp me a suite whenever I brought it down there. O-well, enough rambling on.
