I sold my 996 Turbo before well before I bought my Rolex. But it was a beauty and enjoyed it while I had it.

Analog living! Sold for the city life and a metrocard. I do miss the simplicity of the VDO dials and the joy of pressing down the throttle at 3500rpm in 3rd gear.

Drove a 76 Turbo years ago
We'll than you know pretty fast if you can handle a 911 . . . .

Saw one for sale a few weeks back for 99,000.00 . . . .

These cars prices are exploding

Nice 4S you got and a stunning watch

My smurf is just a dressed up Carrera with lots goodies and not the 50th Anniversary RS. Please post pictures of your 73 RS. There is one currently on the market for sale for $1.3 million. That is the Porsche of all Porsches!
