Interesting viewpoint from ThomasVDA and sad if that's the way things are across the pond. I can understand the flashy banker/lots of cash-to-spend types who buy a new 991 or Cayenne Turbo. But if they're snapping up the older cars simply to be seen in then that is really shutting out the genuine enthusiasts who have followed the mark for years or even decades.
I wanted a 911 badly when I was kid growing up in the '70s and learned to drive in the '80s. I watched them race in WEC on ESPN and saw them race 962s at Riverside in '86 and '87. My older brother owning a couple of 914s also had an impact on me. I guess I have to feel very fortunate to have owned the cars that I have because I don't see me ever buying another air cooled car with the way the market is now.
