The 944 Turbo S I had was really fast. I dialed down the boost at the track because I knew the car was much more capable than I.  Fantastic car, but I get bored easily, and it just doesn't sound as good as a flat 6. Smile  I think I will be going with the 84 911 I have an opportunity to buy. It is pretty well prepared already. See my other post in the air cooled 911 forum. (Does anyone know Maureen McVale's old 84 black 911?)

 Going to go with the 911 for a couple reasons.

1. It's a fairly capable car.
2. Not extremely fast where I can get in over my head too quickly. If I can master the 911 quirky handling, I think it will set me up to drive cars with better balancing
3. You don't see them on the streets
4. That engine note!
5. Insurance/Classic tags - A biggie here since it won't just be a track car. I can get insurance for much cheaper, and register it as a classic and not deal with emissions/inspections.

Later on, if and when, I get bored with the 911 I probably won't take as much of a hit with depreciation like a corvette, and then go out and buy a cheap vette?

Any bad logic here?
Adam
