Unless you are lighting cigars with dead presidents - it still makes for a pretty pricey lawn ornament.

To some, a 986 isn't a cheap beater - its a dream.

Ask the Doc if he expects to get back the price of his restoration? or JD if he is under any illusion that he won't get corn holed on the re-sale of the Dangermobile.

To some, living the 986 dream is worth every penny of preventative maintenance.

I have spent close on £5k (sterling) on my car since January - why???? beacuse i love it and i can. Sure i could upgrade P car, sure i could change brand - but i don't want to. I want to keep my 986 mint and alive.

Anyways - plough your own furrow in life. Do what works for you. If its a simple maths equation the so be it, but i figure emiotion has to come into it somewhere.
