Owned 2 in my day. Loved the cars, but they were clearly bought because the 911's were too expensive for me at the time. Of course, I lusted after the 911's, which is actually WHY I bought the 912's. I knew what the Count said was true, so for that I give myself credit. But I still wanted a 911 more.
I find it difficult to swallow the reality of the prices these cars a drawing these days. It's not that I regret selling mine; hell, one of the best days of my life was watching one of those 912 rust buckets go down my driveway for the last time. It's just that I always considered the 911 to be a better car...period, end of story.
Some people are saying in other threads they can't justify the prices of the current batch of SC's and 3.2's, in their heads or in the marketplace. I don't agree with them regarding those 911's, but for the life of me, I feel the same way about the 912.
Good cars, solid drivers, but not for me at the current price point, especially when you can get a nice air cooled 911 (or maybe even two?) for the same amount of dough.
