These cars are designed for driving, not garage queens.

Perfect low mileage examples are way too expensive to even enjoy. That's why I wasn't looking for such car. One in very good condition and a reasonable mileage was just fine.

My friend has this very problem with his Turbo S. It's a low mileage example and they fetch more than half a million these days. He doesn't even want to drive it anymore. That's not the point of a hobbyist car to me. Just like my steel Rolexes, I want to WEAR them and wear them properly.

As someone who leased a 991 c2 and paid for 18000 miles per year I wholeheartedly agree, I daily drove it in northern climate through winters! Very capable.
