The observation that I can't help make on Bring a Trailer is that a high percentage of cars being offered for sale on that site are Porsches. I can't help but wonder why that is? Is this a car that people buy so that they can say that they have owned a Porsche, and then flip to make money, or because they don't like owning it?

I remember hearing that with the early ones, you needed to have 2 Porsches, one to drive and one that will be in the shop for the remaing time. I watched a Wheeler Dealer episode where the water cooled 911 had both IMS bearing and cylinder scoring, which I wasn't that impressed with. You would think that a manufacturer would have product tested the hell out of a model prior to introducing it!
