The curse of the Cab. A C4 Cab no less. The only thing worse (in terms of resale value) would be if it was an automatic. Great cars I am sure, but like you, I am just not a fan of the 996 in general.
If I were to ever be swayed it wouldn't be an open-top car that does it. YMMV, but there are plenty of 996 cabs (and even a few coupes) out there under $14k:
