Blech. That’s a lot of money for a non Porsche GT motorwerks power plant.

The nice cars seemed to bottom out around $55-60k. Even at that price there was money to be made, but I couldn't convince myself to spend that much on a car |

That's what I always thought, a 996 GT3 was about $55-60k. Never a car for me though...

Granted, I never actually looked at any of them, but there were certainly a number of listing of cars that looked nice enough in the 40s. $40k was probably an exaggeration. But still.
Mostly, though, I’m kicking myself for not understanding what a deal K’s old 993 C4 was when she dumped it.
