Is owning a classic 911 not as much fun anymore?

I always enjoy taking my 930 out for a nice long drive. I love going to all of the various shows and cruise nights and as an added benefit I get to bond with my son on our long trips in the car. But lately with the values rising and reading thread after thread of cars being stolen the fun is starting to turn to stress. I normally take my Cayenne to Hershey but this year my son said we have to take the 930 or I would rather stay home. I took the car and stayed in a Hotel overnight the desk clerk was very nice. When he saw the car he said I will give you a room on the first floor and you can park the car right outside the window. I could almost touch the car from the room. Still I could not sleep all night worrying about some idiot taking the car. I do not think I will ever leave the car out overnight on another trip again.
I always loved when it was outside my house and people would stop to ask questions and compliment it but now I just try to keep it hidden and the garage doors closed. The other day my son was cleaning his car with the garage open and a man stopped to ask if it was for sale he left his number but all I thought about was if he was really interested or just trying to get a look at how to steal it.
I am seriously considering selling it not because I do not want it anymore just because the fun is starting to be outweighed by the concern. Anyone else feel this way?
