Well long story short, due to financial obligations I might have to sell myTurbo. I have been a die-hard Porsche fan since I was a child and the day Iwas able to afford this car and bring it home will always be etched in my mind.

Unfortunately I 'm in a situation where I have to support family members whohave gotten on in age and have health issues and the right thing to do is tosell one of my toys. Seeing that I have a bad left hip it only makes sense tosell the only manual transmission equipped car and the onethat I don't drive all year round.

I promised myself I will own another 911 Turbo as soon as I can but realisticallythat won’t be for a while.

Seeing that I live in Canada and the market is dry here I will most likley post it on ebay or something.

 

You will regret selling it

 

You may regret it up front, but you're making the right choice. Family always comes first, and ultimately for that reason I don't think you will regret it.

What's to say once things stabilize for you that you aren't back in another Porsche or have picked up a more budget friendly sports car (ex C5 Z06)

 

I wouldnt say regret but more like sorrow.

 

I will still have a Jaguar XFR as my fun every day car and my FD LSX RX7 as a toy but having worked so hard to get into a Porsche Turbo seeing it was always my dream car makes it very hard for me. The only reason I would ever sell it is to help loved ones and that is exactly the case. It will be very hard to do but it is the right thing to do as you said.

 

If anyone has questions about getting car across the border, I bought my car out of canada and brought into the US. You can on me if you buy his car for information.

 

bummer bro. saving grace IS the jag. but you know that. bummer.

funny i just sent out a feeler on mine yesterday also..but that was either gonna be for a lost month somewhere,, or on a 997.1 mezger. I'm betting on that "last of a breed" thing..

sorry to turn this toward me, makes me ill to hear. So sorry..

 

Your doing the right thing as at the end of the day its just a car that can be replaced when things are different. How long have you had it?

 

Sorry to hear about this...its tough when folks start getting older. Helping family is really important. Hopefully in the future you can grab another one

 

Sorry to hear Jason. I know when we spoke last, you had family issues. I'm glad you at least got the car sorted and it is now in tip top shape for it's next home. Cars are just cars...many more of them will come along. Family comes first, they're not here as long...Good Luck with your sale and take care.

 

It always sucks to let go of something you love, but sometimes you have to.
I'm doing a relaunch of my business now and I'll be lucky if mine makes it though it. Just be glad you have a strong asset to use and buy another when you can if you want. BTW that LSX FD RX-7 sounds sick!

 

Sorry to hear of your situation. As some have suggested, sell it as the family comes first.

 

sorry to hear that! make sure to advertise it here & RL as well, maybe it'll stay around for a re-buy in the future

 

Thanks for the kind words everybody! It took a few days of getting myself ready and still it was damn hard to post but here it is...
