What is the fun of a car you can't drive? The PDK was an engineering marvel, but clinical - boring and the main reason I sold was the sound sucked. I figure $2 per mile in depreciation. Loved my time with it though. I paid $52,000 and sold it for $47,000 a year later - It was worth it to me - it was on my list of cars to own. The right air-cooled car though, that is a keeper.
Thanks for the input :-)

My friend sold his 2008 Cayman last year and picked up Peter Zimmerman's red 911SC with 200,000 miles on it and does not regret making the change one bit.
