This is like marrying a stripper you met in a bar in Vegas. Could be fun, but will most likely cost you an arm and a leg if you intend to stick around.

Owning a Porsche is like dating a Super Model, you know there will be a LOT of up keep but you accept that because they are so much FUN to ride.

Thanks for the replies. Today I'm going to take the buffer to the headlights and see how it goes. Ordering some rotors/pads, and seeing about the windshield at a local shop. Messed with the top for an hour this morning without much progress. Taking it slow, so I don't make it worse. It has just under 140k miles on it.

Somehow the comments from Perfectlap and gmboxster remind me of my first wife: It was great for a while, but like a rollercoaster, no matter how fun it is at the start, you can only ride it for so long. Eventually you just want to get off.

Just purchased along with a coffee. Ready to drive home:


Ready for the Harbor Freight buffer:
