996 Porsche? I saw a 1999 911 for quite a bit less than the price of the new C6 Corvette. That's a ton of car for the money! Heck, a 98-99 911 can be had for not much more than a new C-Class! In fact, checking out used Porsches I have found that the 996's (NON Turbo...) are less than a 79-85 911 Turbo.

With nearly $70,000 in depreciation already gone, how much more could you lose on a '99 911?

I'd love a Ferrari, but the only Prancing Horse model close to the price of a 99-00 911 is a REALLY old 308. Too rich for me. Also, service costs are so staggering, long term ownership is just not an option. A Porsche would be more than enough in that dept already...
