911 Buyers remorse

[trimer]

Both Boxsters...loved them but wasn't in love with them. I am not a fan of the back end on the 986 but love the back end of the 996. In the end, I wanted the brute power. My 89 944 Turbo is the best car I have ever driven...and it still isn't 100 percent as the motor mounts and tranny mounts need replaced. It is quick, when the turbo kicks in it is a whole different world and handles just as good as my box did. I made an offer on a 993 that wasn't accepted. Missed it by a couple grand. I would Personally buy a 911 over a boxster at this point. But again. I had two 986.

I'm with thstone all the way. I bought my 986S in 2006 with the intention of eventually building a race car, and that's what happened. But a funny thing happened on the way to the race track. I discovered that my dream race car was a PITA to drive daily. I needed something that was more practical. It needed enough room to carry me and whatever stuff (even the dog!), good a/c and amenities, decent mpgs, DIY maintenance, AWD for rain and snow, and fun car enjoy-ability. I tried a BMW e90...snooze. I thought about a Subaru...fugly low mpgs. And landed a 1999 C4. My world is complete.

Oh, yeah, I'm also in the slant nose-haters club. YUK!
