    Different strokes for different folks...that's why there are so many cars to choose from. Regardless, I'm not good enough to drive those cars at that level and personally think real high end cars to be a waste because unless you get on a track you can't legally drive them like they want to be driven. I'm real content with my 1997 911S, not the fastest but a blast to drive; and it hasn't lost much of it's value over the years and is a classic; the last of the 993 air cooled cars.

    That is why I think performance boats are more fun...you can run at speed without the added worry of LE most of the time.
    But nobody knew those 993 S/ Turbos were going to hold their value so well.... The 2001-2004 Turbos are very fast/reliable but don't seem to hodl their value anywhere near as well as the previous generation 911's.

    The boats are more fun especially when the lawmen couldn't catch you if they wanted to!

    100% agree. I sold my '95 993 cab a few years ago, but I plan on replacing it with a 993 coupe soon. My favorite series for sure.

    Exactly! Sure would suck if there wasn't all the options to argue about on the internet.

    Unfortunately I can't afford any real speed on the water (at least in a boat size I'd want to run on St Clair), so I'll take my cheap speed in the vette.
