You got me shook, what could be broken that requires so much money? Did yall take it to the dealer?
I thought I could buy a 986 for $10K and loose $2K at most on sale, S2000 or AW11 looking good right about now.

well, I suspect fro most people who've done that, it's 'cuz they caught the DISEASE..... haha.
Any 20 year old car, if you get caught-up in making things like-new, can cost you well north of those numbers. But you don't need it to be new.
I think if you took a poll here, you'd find that the maintenance costs range between about $200 and $1000 year. Someone got mad at me for saying so, recently, haha, so I'll include some outliers that say possibly as much as $2000/yr. but that's very rare.
When you egt to spending money is when you get to modifying, or going into "restoration" as opposed to maintenance. OR - Track Breakage, as is the case for me, haha.
