It may very well happen Larry. :-) Another SC. One owner car, Targe, all original with 58,000 miles. Being all original, may be picking your brain on a few updates. Want to use it for daily transport, so looking at a few things, like SSI heat exchangers. Just had a full service and the top rebuilt. I do know the car and drive it from time to time. Goes like the hammers!! More stable on the road at 100 with the top off than a Boxster with the top down. :-)
My thinking is, to enjoy dedicated cars, like a 911 sports car, and a benz for real comfort for another 10 years or so. Then, I plan to down size and move more towards a all in one car, like a M5. Four sets, good trunk and an engine to to go out and tickle Ferraris with. ;-) I'll keep you updated Larry.
