I was with you until I saw the Salmon interior, it looks like Eric Shea's been driving it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)

I was talking to a guy at Corvettes at Carlisle today. He bought his dad's red 2008 Z06 for an unbelievably low price (I wonder if dad would adopt me?). Dad got tired of driving it around town, because every kid at every traffic light would rev his engine and want to race.

All I'm saying is, be careful what you wish for. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Yes, I would trade my 914 for it. Then I would promptly sell it, buy another 914 that has already been converted to a six and put the rest away for my kids' college funds. I don't really like the C-GT.

I would not kick it out of bed for eating crackers. But it also really is not my thing. In the new car Porsche range, I'd rather have a worked over Cayman.

I am right there with you. A couple of years ago, one of the local dealerships rented out a regional airport for a day and invited a few PCA members to come out and drive new cars on the runways/taxi-ways which made up a 1+ mile triangle. I got a ride in some guy's Ferrari F599 GTB (at 155mph), which was pretty amazing. I also got to drive a Cayman S. Got it to about 110, and I must say that I love that car. I have never been a real Boxster fan, but I love the Cayman. They got everything right with that car except offering it as a targa ;-)

Nope I am keeping my 914 for life. Wanted one since I was 4 years old. Can't sell your childhood dream.

But if the planets align properly I think I will get one of these in 2010.

ok, I love the car... but I could NEVER have a car like that... I'm not responsible enough behind the wheel, and I'd probably kill someone for scratching it... I'd be too paranoid to park it anywhere... gimme a car like the caymen, boxter, M3, rx-8/7 or elise... or hell even a miata... a car you can drive and not feel like you would cry if a bug hit the windshield. that car is more $$ than my house. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/screwy.gif)

that said, I'd like free range on a track with it for a few minutes... I'd spend a little cash on that, fo shizzle

Having ridden in one, I can say that I would easily trade my 914 for it. The sound of that engine is like crack cocaine. Once you hear it behind you, you are hooked. I can only imagine what it would be like to be the one making that engine make that sound... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) Of course you can't drive it anywhere... That sucks.

I wish I could afford a Carrera GT. I don't particularly want one. I just wish I could afford one. Actually, I can afford to buy one but then I'd have to live in it. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif)

I'm with bigkensteele... couldn't afford to insure it or pay the taxes on it so I'd have to liquidate it quickly.

But then I could buy a top of the line 914/6 conversion and pay my house off.


Of course at this point, I'd rather have 390 Krugerrands instead (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

WHAT? She comes with a Warrenty???

Damn, where can I get one?

(isn't this the lovely Megan Fox? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/grouphug.gif) )


As for a Carrera GT, it reminds me of a lesson I learned when I started to buy a house. SURE, I might be able to stretch to get a more expensive house, but I couldn't afford the upkeep. AND, and perhaps more importantly,

Whatever you buy, really owns you.
