Overprotective with the 997tt?

This is obviously a very personal decision for all and depends on their circumstances, financial situation, commute, and mostly personality (neurotic, OC, layed back - ???) I must say though, that seeing the picture of that C4S cracked up made me very sad - ouch! That also happened to a friend of mine who had only 3000 miles on his C4S that was five years old. Perhaps there is some benefit even to driving these cars as Daily Drivers - you get to know the car so well and get comfortable in them so you can better react to situations??

enjoy their cars on the open road or the track. Most are workaholics, raising families, and paying the bills. So yes, using a turbo as a daily driver may be the only option they have to drive the car and that's sad.

Here is my garage queened 2006 997S cab. Blemish free, not a single ding, no scratches, no nicks, no chips, perfectly conditioned leather, Menzerna polished, Pinnacle Sovereign coated paint, Wheel Waxed wheels, tire pressures checked within 1/10th PSI factory specs. Look where it got me. Drive it and enjoy the hell out of it, after all it's a depreciating asset and no amount of babying will change that.
i really cared a little too much for my 1st TT, but it ended up being in a very big accident. luckily, nothing happened to me. now i'm waiting for the second one, i'll try hard not to go crazy too much this time, it's really not worth it.
