I've read with interest the comments on this thread regarding restoration. Every 911 when it leaves the factory is brand new and unique, there is not another 911 like it. The first owner takes delivery drives it. It is not brand new but still unique. Over time it develops a patina changes ownership and may collect a few dings, have worn parts replaced. Then one day comes the time when an owner decides to carry out major repairs to the body and mechanics of the car. The condition of the car dictates the depth of the repairs or replacements of the parts. No matter how well the car is 'restored 'renovated' 'rebuilt' it is not the same car that left the factory. My point is cars evolve through their life. We should all try and keep these great cars on the road and to what extent and money each owner wishes to put into doing this is their choice. Better than new cannot be achevied. You can improve the handling upgrade the brakes achieve more power have a better paint job etc, but it is, and never will be that brand new unique car that left the factory. It has evolved. Restored to 'As New' is impossible. Restored, Renovated, Rebuilt, so long as it keeps another 911 on the road I don't care.
Just drive your Porsche and enjoy it.
