Side-Splitting SC Article...
Came across this article today from an old Truth About Cars talking about vintage 911 (SC) ownership…………..couldn't help laughing out loud. I'm going to have to buy the guy's book now.

About sums it up! But I love every second of all its quirks.

The author of that is a member of the forum. And the book is very entertaining and funny.

The amusing thing about the book is he talks about someone who bought a 1975 turbo and warehoused it hoping it would go up in value...and he laughs because they were worth nothing when the book was written. I wonder if that guy still has the 75 turbo...

This is so true...I guess it's like all investments, the value to you is whatever it is when you choose to sell it! Ask me about my Lucent Technologies stock that I was poised to make a killing on in 2001...
