Agreed....the price on the new ones is just crazy though...even though now they have a great residual....I just cant justify the price on a vehicle that I'm not crazy about....
I would find one that's about 10 years old. New ones are insane.

Maybe if I drove one..(haven't since 2002) I might change my mind...but even in 02 I wasn't impressed...the car just isn't my style...

I'm really a 4 door guy. I find 2 doors to be cramped and lousy access.

I have a couple of friends that have newer ones....they both bought for the status...I doubt either car has seen triple digits...

I don't care about that crap.

This is why I just got a Tundra. It blends in and people don't know that it's faster than a Raptor V6. True sleeper.

I've never bought a vehicle for status.....if I wanted a lambo..or ferrari...I could have one...I've never been concerned with status...I don't have to impress anyone;)

Just think of all the crap you have to put up with when you own those cars. No thanks.

I'm happy with what I have. No reason to screw it up over a gold digger.

The low miles look to be driving the price up. I think there's a 2017 here for $120k bu has like 25k miles. Still low imo.

I'm more about the condition and mileage when it comes to these "older" cars to me. I will always pay a premium for the right car.

I'd rather have a bit newer one even if it has more miles. The 999.2 have some goodies so that's what's on my radar.

My buddy's ran 10.30 at about 132MPH if memory serves bone stock on street tires. They're AWD so makes pissing off race cars at the track a fun day lol. The 999.2 has a pretty nice launch control as well.

The other day on the thruway..a 911 turbo was creeping up on me..bout 75mph.....it was a newer one..maybe even a 22...now I'm not a fan of the exhaust note of the 911...but this one sounded really good...it was like a granite color.....I was in my truck...we came to a long straight...he was gon e in a flash...impressive
That's Agate Gray in Porsche speak. Very similar to Granite. DSCN2104.JPG DSCN3247.JPG

Would look a lot better if them rims didnt have that stupid siver ring around them smh. Ruins the whole car smh. I do like how Porsche has retained the same essential look for the past 50 years or so.
My thought as well...dont care for that look on any car...

Wheels are an easy fix. Did you ever not buy a car because of the wheels?

Not that they're snooty...(bank pres.and doctor)...both have gorgeous wives...I am so tempted to make the obviously salacious analogy between the use of both respectively...but I doubt they would appreciate the reference...even I have to watch what I say in some social circles...unlike here:giggle::giggle:;)
