I can truly appreciate the Porsche bug, but I am give only one piece of advice. If you are use to paying $1,000 a month to the Credit Card Companies, chances are other saving methods have suffered. Please make sure you have other savings accounts built up before buying a Porsche. The worst thing that could happen is, you buy one, and a MAJOR repair comes up and you need to rely on the Credit Cards again. Could you finances sustain a $10,000+ repair without relying on Credit Cards?

It is a vicious cycle that has destroyed many people.
