Angry My car is gone...new buyer picked it up, its a sad sad day!!

Well, I sold my car on ebay. The funds were wired yesterday and an enclosed trailor came to pick up my car today. I can't believe how much regret I had when it left........I got good money, the cold weather will be here in 2-3 months, I will get the 997 TT in June 2006, and it barely cost me any money to drive the car for 4 months, so, I thought I would be ok with it...............Well......Guess what......THIS SUCKS BIG TIME!!! I WANT MY CAR BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

uh oh, don't go buying another one. I am pretty sure that would set the world record for number of different 996tt's owned

Are you gonna get something else till June?

Lou,

You could look into a lease assumtion for the next 8 to 10 months until the 997 tt gets here. Would suck to be without a Porsche.

How do you get by buying an 05 Turbo S and not lose hardly any money over a 4 month period?

Hey Lou, you can borrow the "fighting bull" for the weekends if you want. That should ease the pain a bit.

Same here, next Pcar is the 997TT

I bought the car for $10k under list($128k) I sold it with the aftermarket stuff for $133k....... I had about $138-139k in it with the mods... I also got to use some of the mods on my previous turbo cab, so, not so bad.....

Lou,

Cool talking to you the other day. Regarding the sale of your TT, I feel your pain. You could always go Italian
