I exited the Porsche world.
I traded my boxster for something I can use everyday. It was some what depressing.
But I'm thinking when the dust settles in a couple years a 996 or 997 may be next.

Likewise I considered a trade, but I'm already married. I get more use from the car.

What did you get?

I went for a mid-size pickup truck - Nissan Frontier Pro 4x (They have been around for a long time, basically unchanged - That's why I went that way)
Funny thing is I traded my 3 year old Nissan Xterra for my Boxster because I wanted a car, then I trade my Boxster in for a Nissan PU

That is great. Did you consider doing the ones behind the LCDs? When I did mine I did them all.

I have done behind the LCD's that's why they are green. To create the original orange there is a yellow piece of plastic that the original red LED's went through creating the orange so with that yellow piece of plastic still in there it's created the green with the blue LED's. I will replace the yellow plastic with a white piece at some point
