To me having the Porsche tool bag and tools is part of the classic car feeling.
Maybe because most cars, especially recent ones do not come with any, whereas,
exotic cars, like Ferraris, always have. It is also like having the original window
sticker and owners manual. Part of the feel of the car if that makes any sense.

Are they actually useful as tools? For some simple things. I was at an autocross
and some dudes flying turtle green 914 was running very rich. All he had was
the original tool set. We used the spark plug wrench and removed and cleaned
the plugs. He was able to complete the autocross and took top time of the day.
OK, top time of the day for 914s and he had the only 914.
