Yeah, I think this counts a "Performance" topic!

For me, my goal is the GT3 soul in a 986 body. I need to be able to drive it on the street to events and for fun. I don't care so much about comfort/luxury. I want handling, speed, and safety (on any given day that order may change). My car has 130,000 miles on it now, I'm 41, and I'd like to think my surviving relatives would fight over it when I'm dead...in at least another 41 years.
YAAA-freakin-HOOO
Great Post. My plan somewhat mirrors yours. Just removed my 3.2 S engine to see what I can do for some torque. Don't forsee selling until I am too feeble to shift myself & can afford a PDK!
