I once was over at European Performance Engineering one morning to help my
father pick up his car.  There were about 5-6 guys in 3-piece suits,
dressed to the hilt, and half the 911's inside the garage(presumably had
MD's on 'em, and several were dropped off by wives driving BMW 3/5-series.

A friend and I were driving along a year or two ago when we saw a balding
guy in a new Z3 with a blond bombshell in the passenger seat.  We both
yelled, "MIDLIFE CRISIS!" out the window at him :)


>Just my opinion. I still want a 911T or a 928S4.

Nah, get a C4.  Only set you back $120k or so, but you get super-fancy AWD
and a gazillion HP :)
