Dear Mr. Kelly
There's no feeling quite like learning that something you treasure so much is actually more valuable than you originally thought. In 2014, the Porsche 996 generation 911 and first generation 986 Boxster join the ranks of Porsche Classics � including the legendary 356, 914 and 959, the four- and eight-cylinder models like the 924, 928, 944 and 968, and the 911 models up to 964 and 993.
As a proud owner of a first generation water-cooled 911, you appreciate the design and engineering that has always made Porsche iconic, and a dream of ownership worth aspiring to. While the 996 generation 911 is not yet "vintage," it is now a young "classic vehicle" that has proudly written its chapter in Porsche history. As an owner, it's crucial for you to know that the full support of Porsche Classic will guarantee the availability of Genuine Porsche Parts and ensure that our extensive service knowledge is preserved for decades to come.
As we have for every other standard-production model with an end of production at least ten years in the past, Porsche Classic will continue to strengthen the reliability and longevity of these new Classic models, and contribute to them retaining and increasing their value as they progress from everyday cars to collector's items.
Congratulations on becoming a part of the Porsche Classic family.
All this is saying is that your car is a "classic" now so please don't drive it as much(as we, Porsche don't want any more bad publicity on the IMS. The less you drive, the less for the engine to explode, the better it looks for us)
I read it much differently, something to the effect of "Parts for your vehicle will now come in a 'Porsche Classics' box and thus will cost at least twice what they did beforehand. Thanks for putting our children through college."
