Wellllll the way I see it, what would be the more desirable situation, a car worth the same (or less) than what you paid for it or a car that is worth more than what you paid for it? If the joy of driving /owning her is gone because of the additional stress brought on by your additional net worth, I'm thinking it's time to part. Would it be a more desirable situation owning a car not worth fixing if a big ticket item were to fail? Admittedly neither my 85 3.2 or my 993 is worth what your 930 is but both have spent many nights outside hotels/restaurants over the years, and that pattern is not changing any time soon. When I bought the cars they were definitely not pristine, the normal road rash, some minor interior wear....even a few dings. Great, solid cars that I look out for but don't sweat the additional minor dings that the 85 has picked up from idiots in parking lots. No offence, but if I was as stressed as you seem to be, I'd sell and buy something you can enjoy using. Oddly enough on my last 3000 mile 993 trip six weeks ago I had to stay at a number of hotels...no additional dings but two of the Porsche crests on the wheels were ripped off in two separate incidents....maddening yes, but not a deal breaker.Cheers
