PORSCHE-a sound purchase-

Cars are, not a good investment, to say the least. That said however in thirty years of buying (61 vehicles), kind of a dumb hobbey of mine, mostly sports cars, and a few bikes;I would like to share with you my experience. This is my experience and may not reflect any resemblance to the automotive market what-so-ever. With the excpetion of a 67-427 Corvette Convertble, a HD-Fat Boy, and a 1970 -914-6, I have never actually "made" money on any vehicle. I lucked out with the 914, which was sold at an auction in Scottsdale, AZ for more than 4 times I paid for it.
Without any specific studies, just what I have personally experienced, PORSCHE in general, has held thier value better than any other vehicles I have owned. Maybe it is the mere fact that there is just not many, by general comparison, built, or the folks who buy them will not settle for much else, not sure.
