Did not think that you would sell so quickly since you seemed to be enjoying the porker

 

You never actually own a Porsche. You merely look after it for the next generation :=B:

If by next generation you mean your kids then no .... unless they are willing to stomach a yearly increase in road tax on an annual 3.6K base (for a 997 3.8L C2S) up to max of 5.5K per year, and as well as the usual maintenance issues for vehicles that are over 10 years old.

Haha, you're selling and I'm looking to buy.

 

But I want a turbo. Got a car in mind. Let's see how it goes. If the inspection goes well, bye bye M5, buy buy Porker turbo. :D

 

Will happen soon, if happening.

Not sure about you but porsche purists typically avoid forced induction cars, preferring the mechanical purity of the normally aspirated flat six. That is why there is such an uproar over the conversion from NA to turbo for the current 991.2. Yes some porsches are collectible cars and do appreciate in price but they are few and far in between. Here are some examples

none of which have force induction though. Tough to do (i.e., collect) in the local context though given the road tax surcharge for vehicles beyond ten years.

I've had mechanical purity two cars ago. Now I'm looking for power (or at least power/weight, since even the turbo can't match the M5's crank HP in absolute terms). :D

This is my favorite Porsche - Targa.   :inlove: I have loved this car since I was young. I really could fap to this.

 

Hope to own one before I reach 100 [sweatdrop]
