I'll let you know next time I take it to work. But forget about trading me for it. ;)

Agreed. Although some people do daily drive them.

This is the kind of car that Porsche hasn't built in over 50 years and would never build today.

It's hard to recognize in pictures, and even in person, but the 355 is a much smaller car than the 360. It's 11 inches shorter! It's also 200 pounds ligher, dispite the move to an aluminum...

My desire for a Ferrari is always at odds with my need to pinch pennies. I can only justify it to myself by going in as a short term deal. In/enjoy/out within a couple of years. If the car is in...

Almost all Ferraris are low mileage cars. This one, I think, suffered from abuse and neglect. The rust, fuel issues, interior leather problems all suggest the car was just neglected.

Check out this rebuild story. This person does an excellent job of documenting all his work. Scary how a $35,000 bargain turns into a $65,000 sink hole. Typical story that even the potential 986...

One of my current projects is the MR2 ax/track car. I looked at 944s for quite a while, and loved them, but the MR2 should be able to take a better beating for less cost.

It's amazing how relatively inexpensive the 360 is. But I am strongly leaning towards the F355. To me, it's Ferrari's best looking modern car.

I have a WRX, it's a great car, but it's not a replacement for a 986. The experience is something totally different. The tall chassis relegates them to always being something other than a sports...

I don't know why, but there's just something I don't like about the spyder Ferrari V8s. It just seems like this car should be a Berlinetta.

That one I don't see happening. If I buy another Boxster, unless Porsche decides to make the 982 smaller and lighter it'll be another 986. However, more likely, my next Porsche would be a pre-964...
