I mean you would really, really have to be fixated on numbers.

These cars just don't have anything special going for them otherwise..If they are your passion by all means go for it but there are far better ways to spend your Porsche bucks IMHO....Now a Euro Carrera is a completely different story. That engine is worth the price of admission.....
I'm not going to be the one to flame you. I agree with you 100%. My analysis of the market in no way means that I am one of the guys interested in them. For the same money today I'd buy a 3.2l Carrera and put a whale tail and IROC body kit on it.

I personally don't buy cars hoping they'll appreciate. That's nothing but a recipe for trouble. I buy cars because they are what I like and want to own. Different strokes for different folks. I like to think there's a perfect Porsche for ever person. You've just got find it, and then hope you can afford it.
