It's the INTERNET my friend- Heard of it?
I get to comment. Them's the rules.
Don't like it- SHUT UP and stop posting until you either buy a damned car or talk about other stuff.
No horse in this race- But I have a serious passion for these cars and find it a bit silly that you have drawn in many good intentioned people here in your mythical quest for a car. I'm a little embarrassed that I am posting about it, but it's a fun distraction. (I knew you could not go more than one week without a "What is this car worth" thread)
I enjoy cars- and I enjoy talking about them, fixing them, buying them and DRIVING them. Had my 1988 Ferrari 412 out at a few get-togethers this morning, then took the 89 Carrera Cab out for some spirited backroad driving this afternoon.
Personally, as you can see from the tenor of my posts, I think you are lying to the good folks here. By your own admission you have not REALLY been shopping- You have not even been behind the wheel of one in decades! You never post photos or links until a car is already sold- then it is safe to "claim" you were pursuing it. No reports of test drives or hands on condition reports- because you have not been inside of one.
Again- it's a disservice to the air-cooled Porsche community to make it seem like there are no good cars out there, or that finding a run-of-the-mill 80's SC or Carrera should take a decade.
So there you go- I think you're a liar- prove me wrong. Go buy one and then these kinds of pointless threads can be behind us forever, and you can enjoy the thrill of driving a classic Porsche. You really should... it's a blast!
