if i think back, i have continuously done just that....but, luxury then sport....then luxury....then moons later my first porsche....then back to luxury.....lost the luxury and now back to a porsche......interesting thing is that the "luxury" car (merc, lease return) is still in the driveway and i don't miss driving it a bit.

do i wish i could have all of the above (suv/porsche/luxo sedan)? yes! but two out of three aint bad

Porsches are so common around where I am, going to the parking lot will not get you keyed. Lots use them as daily drivers as do I...

And with Geico or any insurance company without the middleman your premiums are reasonable.

So why do I drive a Porsche? Because they have become practical But they've always been fun to drive.

Ever since I walked into my 8th grade biology classroom (I'm 39) - the teacher restoring a 912 - he had a sign hanging over the door - "Porsche is a Two Syllable Word"
