FWIW, up here a 993 will run you $90 - $100K. I'd sell my left nut tomorrow to pay for a nice one at 29 large. Just sayin' :-)

I have decided (with some very strong persuasion from my financial planner...i mean wife) after buying and selling and LOSING MY ASS on my last boxster - 4 toy cars over the past 2 years - to pass on the 993.

HUGE Mistake I think, but I can only do what I can do. I am happy to have what I have and will find another some day. Talking with coreseller today - we both agree 928s are looking solid and coming up a little in value.

I also would love a 944 turbo. my son was named after Jake Ryan from Pretty in Pink (well that and because my grandpa was a Jake)... I will keep my eye out for one of those in great condition at a great price for sure...but for now that 993 is out there...
