G50 3.2L 1989 Carrera
I only correct you because my early 89 was one of the last quintessential early era Porsches to roll off the line. The 89s that came after - the 964s - were good but not as good

Right, I did not look carefully. The lack of silly movable tail should have told me. I’m fantasizing about a 964 right now so that is likely how my mind went there.
You have the very last G-body, nice!

I am loving the 719 Cayman T. It is pretty close to perfect for what I am looking for. Of course, the engine lacks high rpm drama.
I jumped into the low miles 2004 to park it in storage. I was half expecting that the S2000s will all be up for sale soon. However, I was very pleasantly surprised that I am still loving the S2000 driving experience!

3. Some well known shops have attitudes that I find unacceptable. Luckily, there are also really fantastic shops and people. Patrick @Urge and @tom@ptuning have been some of the best I have worked with so far. Thank you!

Long story short, I wanted a “reference” car and that led me down the CR rabbit hole. I figured the CR is the pinnacle of the factory iterations so it would be the best reference car.
I missed out on the black one on BaT back in December. But I wasn’t that keen on it as I wanted to keep them all blue.
I also was trying to staying away from BaT. For a day or two, I didn’t look at BaT. In a moment of weakness, I saw this CR. I thought there’s no way I would win it but still gave it a shot. As luck would have it, I won the auction. Many might park them, my plan is to pick it up in Vegas, drive to AZ to hang out with a friend, then drive back to WA!
