Re:.. Targa...

If you mean watching... then yes.....but if you mean racing...lol...No..... I think the Targa is not for me... not yet anyways...lol... this is my First Boxster... and although I know the roads and the actual Targa Circuit up here very well... I'm pretty sure it would end up badly for the car... ( someone put and Enso F-Car ) in the drink last year up here... and lot's of bottomed out cars every year... all love it though. I've had a few RX'7s ( 81 & 84 Targa ) over the years...and one year I was tempted to look into it... but chickened out...lol... In a perfect world.. I will get my current 986 to where I want it.... then i will buy another P-Car... maybe a 911, and give it a go...lol... Mine Boxster is in getting a full detail job done on it right now.... then it's off to the mechanic to get the suspension looked at, and a newly developed Idling issue looked into : (

Am 66 . Waited till I was 64 to get my first P car. Just in case it blows up it is not the end of my financial world now. Cannot imagine driving anything ordinary again. It has been a life changing event.

It's funny but............

In truth, my salary in the eighties and nineties was more than double what it was from 2008 forward. Not only that, my former occupation is nearly extinct in 2012. Those left doing it make about the same I did but need to cover three states to accomplish it as opposed to half of one state, fifty three never looked better, except maybe over the hood of my Spyder.
