Check this GT4 out

I'm agonisng over whether to go for it or not. I've just finished paying off my mortgage but still have a couple of smaller debts I was intending to clean up before buying a new toy (I was actually thinking of going for a older model 911 964 in 6 months to a years time). Then I saw this and kind of wished I hadn't because I doubt a better one will come along again any time soon.

If I did decide to get it, I'd probably keep my current GT4 as a work-horse (will have to live outside)

Thoughts?

ps. can't view the car because it's out of town, but looks like a pretty accurate representation of what it is.

Someone told me not to expect too much more than 150,000ks at the most from the turbo, but of course it all depends on maintenance and stuff, Iv seen a gt4 still running its original turbo at over 200,000ks and had no issues .. My car now is at 126,000ks and still going strong

Speeding doesn't kill! It never has!
Stopping suddenly .. Thats what gets you!
