And they've shown to be damn near bullet proof.

Those TT's might be one of the best Porsches built in terms of being robust.  Issues are minor.
Yeah, it's a keeper car & I don't know if I'm in "keeper" mode, lol!

But, it had torque, something Honda is still trying to figure out.

Kinda....the new 2L in the Accord is not far behind in its torque figures.

Now, let's look at their normally aspirated engines.

Wow, has that ever aged well.  Price is a bit rich, though, for a 14 year old car.  But still.

It has low KMs and it's from an Acura dealer so the price doesn't seem too farfetched.

2014, 20,000 miles, cost over US$400k, bidding currently stands at US$90k.  It needed a new transaxle at 12,000 freaking miles.  In a $400,000 US car?!?!?!?

Damn pretty though...

I know it's a cab...but this is well below market value IMO

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cars-trucks/edmonton/1990-porsche-911-carrera-2-manual/1413220668?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true
The cab's seem to be running $8k - $15k less than the fixed roof models. That seems like the going price.
