So, payments are on the way for both my car and engine stuff. In the end I got close to what I was asking.
This will put me about halfway to what I want for a down payment on a 2000-2002 Boxster/S, OR 1/3rd to a great condition 928, OR 1/3rd to a great condition 944 S2/951. Not quite sure which to get yet... But I'm sure as I save up more I'll sway closer to the Boxster... At least with the 2002 boxster I can swap in a 3.6 from a 996... |

I had thought about going the 911 (996 ) route, but when I started looking around I found a very good sorted out 944 turbo (87), for 5k. Parts are relitively inexpensive, and you can still turn a wrench on them. The water cooled part was a little wierd at first, but they can run dependably (as long as your not trying to crank out 400+hp) and I've seen highway milage in the low 30's doing 85 mph. But If I had more cash I would have done the 993.
