I think sports car ownership is very much about a time and a place. When I lived in Northern California I had easy access to all those great foothill roads, and loved driving my 911S Targa with the top off ripping through the gears. Then I moved to Las Vegas, and between the heat, the constant construction on the freeways, and a lack of good drivers roads, I gradually fell out of love with the car. On a good road it was like a big go-cart ('76 with 3.2l transplant), with the manual steering, manual brakes and classic Porsche handling, but driving it around town was just not that much fun, so I sold her (Elsa).

Now, a newer more modern car is looking a lot more appealing.
