Jake, I agree with you all the way on this concept. You bought a car that is potentially depreciation proof, gets good gas mileage, & you endeavor to maintain it yourself. I describe the early 986 interiors as having everything you need & nothing you don't. They are quite simply the funnest device ever invented by man.

Apparently your teacher suffers with a common stereotype preconception about Porsche & their drivers, which you are duly bound to dispel. :dance:
