    Interesting, but I'm partial to automatic Ω and Tag Heuer autos.

    My Ω costs more than the last three cars I've owned (separately, not combined).

    Parasitic motion-power, FTW! #porsche

    @OA 5599:

    Cheap, no. Inexpensive and almost fully-depreciated, yes. #porsche

    @that ain't the way to have fun, son: Understood. Including a few cars that I drove home for the grand total of $0.00, probably the ten...uhhh...most predepreciated cars I've owned in my lifetime don't add up to the cost of my Seamonster. #porsche

    @OA 5599: Oh, got it.

    I misunderstood. I've sworn off, at least for several years, paying more than $3K for a vehicle, and I'm not about to drive junk.

    Though I have considered a couple of Roadmonsters and last-gen RWD Fleetwoods. Difficult to find un-donked versions, however.

    To this day, if someone came up to me and demanded my car or my timepiece/wedding ring, take the car. Oh, and don't park it where you have to back up....

    "Timepiece" is when they're at least four-digits of cash.

    While I love my SSS (stainless steel Speedmaster), I'd love to have a Casio Pathfinder, PRG80YT or later, do everything watch.

    @that ain't the way to have fun, son: If you want a clean, stock Roadie or F'wood, make contact with the people who run estate sales. Promise them a little something if one comes on their radar and they give you first shot at it. For that matter, make friends with some funeral directors, too. #porsche

    Certain F1 officials are being offered a 'different' set of family heirlooms, circa 1942. #porsche

    What about all the Swatches that the family hid underground near Zug in 1989? Are we supposed to just ignore this atrocity against fashion? #porsche
