I've mused to my wife about selling the Z3M to try something else and she still mentions the SLK. Gotta be the SLK55 AMG though. I keep an eye out ever since I test drove that one for you

I keep an eye out ever since I test drove that one for you Yeah, I've even considered getting rid of both the Z3M and GS-350 and replace them with one a single car. Would have to be something interesting though, and just can't think of what would do. Now that we have the Frontier the Lexus has been relegated to highway use only. The Frontier is actually great fun to drive around town, and even my wife prefers it over the Lexus for that.
That's not a bad idea! I've been toying with selling the 951 for a couple of years now, but have been too lazy to actually get it sorted enough for sale... instead I've been just enjoying it as much as I can. It's been sitting quite a bit this spring, only getting out once a week as I have no where to go. I'll probably take it for a little boot tonight to pick up some dinner for us, hopefully golf opens up here soon & I'll use it to get to the course

Just curious to hear your thoughts. If I were to sell it I'd put that cash towards another toy car, most likely a 997.

I think it will appreciate in value nicely in the next few years, can't drive mutual funds.Plus, it's one of the best driving cars Porsche ever made. Another thing, would you want to drive a much more valuable car the same way at the track?
Hell, if I were to get a Carrera 4 I'd consider a separate set of 18" winter wheels & enjoy it all year long. With our winters here I could probably get up to the ski hill 75% of the time in it. Nothing sexier than a full Thule box on a 911, I'd look like I was in the Alps, ha, ha, ha!!
I think I'd flog a 997 just as hard on the track, lol!! Reality is that I don't seem to have as much time for the track the past couple summers because of other things going on, so the 2 - 3 track days wouldn't be too bad.
My co-worker is still looking for just the right 5.0 FOX...and I think he may have found it! Now, will he buy it...meh, I dunno. But you be the judge...I too fell in lust with it. Would like to see it in person, but it looks great in the pics. All the right upgrades and then some, perfect stance...only wish it was an '89 so it had a tilt wheel.1990 Ford Mustang LX Convertible 5.0 $18,000

A gorgeous example of the Chrysler Airflow. https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1935-chrysler-c2-airflow-imperial-eight/
