...so they say.

So would you ever, go back, that is??

Much as I adore my GT3, I miss my old 993 and now I see its up for sale again, I am toying with the idea of buying it back again (for say the wife - or to take my two little boys in the back when i fancy it......okay, for greedy old me). Keep the GT3 as a track car and get my old flame back.

Nostalgia that will pass i think. I did get remarkably attached though to that 993, had it 5/6 yrs, loads of mods, lovingly kept etc.

Ajit.

Buy it back.

You could always sell it again in a few months if you thought you made a mistake. If you don't buy it, you might not get the chance for a good few years, and then you won't know how well it's been cared for.

I always feel that way about all the cars I've sold, if listen to my heart my car collection would be bigger than my family. Just enjoy what you have and move on, its never the same the second time around

The Agent has a point. As does Surj. Both are lovely cars.

But, wrt the GT2, the small matter of 114 big ones would mean letting go of the GT3. Don't want to do that.

And Surj's car - mate, you're not helping, i'm meant to be talking myself out of two porkers!

Ajit.
