I laughed and said, �Yea, once you get these in your blood, it is very difficult to get them out, not much can replace a Porsche, in my book, and from what it appears not in many other people�s book either.

I said no, I bought it used last year and he asks which dealership, or if I bought it from someone?
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Sometimes the price of admission isn't bad(not complaining) but the $$ and time commitment is another(still not complaining).
So, I pull into a restaurant today for some lunch, and I must have made a little scene as I pulled in because I couldn�t find a parking spot I liked, and I drove around the lot for about a minute, and when I walked in all of the staff working were looking at me kind of odd? I just guessed they were looking at some of the ink on my arms? Anyways I get a waited and I sit down, mean while I am on a long distance call with a friend in L.A, and I order and talk with her the whole meal and the waiter is trying to get a chance to talk with me, but I am thinking that he is just going to try and sell me more food. (I live in Michigan, where most everyone is about 20-40lbs over weight.) And all I had was a small sandwich and a smoothie.
So as I am trying to leave and I am still on the phone, the waiter who was about 19 starts to ask me about my car, if it was new or did I but it used? I said no, I bought it used last year and he asks which dealership, or if I bought it from someone? At this point I cannot tell if he is shopping for one or what? I tell him about the place I got it and he starts to tell me that he thinks that it was his Girlfriends Fathers old car? He says the guys name and I start to laugh and I say yes it was his old car, I know his name and address as I have all of the Paperwork from everything he did to the car. So I ask jokingly was �Did he beat the crap out of it?� and the kid tells me that the guy only drove the car to the Golf course and Church and that he really �Babied� the car and wouldn�t let anyone else drive it. The kid said that the guy took better care of the car then he did anything else in his house.
To me this was just a kind of nice side note, I knew the car had been taken care of, but it was good to hear from someone who knew the car in its other life, and I am happy to know that the last person who owned the car cared for it as much as I do! Oh, and one last thing, and I have heard this more then a few times here on the boards, the kid said that after the Guy had sold the car, he was full of regret, and now is planning on buying a Turbo this summer. I laughed and said, �Yea, once you get these in your blood, it is very difficult to get them out, not much can replace a Porsche, in my book, and from what it appears not in many other people�s book either. I don�t think of it as a car, and maybe this is just one of my �First year� lessons, but owning a 911 is more of a life style. You really have to commit to owning a Porsche, if you don�t�I don�t know why anyone would ever bother having one.
For me, everyday I can get in my Porsche and drive is a great day! I don�t mind any of the extra work I may have to do from time to time. I would bet that many other people here feel the same.
great to hear a 3rd party confirm the owners' story. You are absolutely right, these cars are special. Sometimes the price of admission isn't bad(not complaining) but the $$ and time commitment is another(still not complaining).
