A more valid comparison (along the lines of fixie vs. modern road bike or rigid chopper vs. modern street bike) would be something like the Model T to the 991. It would be completely selfish, irresponsible, and unsafe to attempt to wheel a Model T through modern traffic, subjecting all those around you to the added risk and inconvenience just so you can look cool and be the center of attention. You really can't say that about an early 911. Nice try, though.
