Obviously, selling to europe leads to fewer P-cars here which shrinks the air-cooled pool beyond expected attrition and so begins a downward spiral. Lots of ways to make money, just don't expect a P-car crowd to be excited about your profit by exporting their enthusiasm.

Also, Walmart says similar things re: making the most money...but they are sending jobs over-seas in order to make XXX% profit.

If you want to keep the air cooled cars here, as stated a few times in this thread, pay what they are worth.

Its the Walmart mentality thats leading to so many cars going overseas. What seller wants to deal with all the nickle and diming time wasters that seem to appear when a 911 is for sale.

The pool of decent 911's stateside is getting smaller and smart buyers better get in while they can.

Oh Yeah...no 911 seller has ever wasted any buyers' time...that's never happened. C'mon.

A lot more to it so if it bothers you that bad send me an email & I will explain the details of my position. I hope to be in your position some day when 5 grand means nothing to our family. My wife is good enough to understand my passion for these cars, I am not going to disappoint her if you can understand that.
Well said------------ and you don't have to apologize
