I found my 951 to be like a boat in that two of the happiest days in my life were (1) the day I got it and (2) the day I lost it.
When they run right, they're a blast. But when they break, it's a guarantee of unpleasantness, expense, lost time, busted knuckles and a lot of yelling and cursing down in the garage when you could be down at the beach or doing any one of a million other things you'd rather be.
I still love the 951 - its a great "bang for the buck" car, but they are cruel mistresses and very, very high-maintenance and demanding of your time and money. Be careful lest ye be lured by her siren song...
