Add in the exorbitant price (this particular example is worth three-quarters of what I just paid for my first house) and you quickly realize that this is a car for the well-heeled enthusiast, or at least, the enthusiast willing to sacrifice a lot of other things for the privilege of driving a car wearing the red, black and gold badge.

Is it worth it? I think so. I certainly would have loved the chance to show the 911 to Nanny. She didn't know much about cars, but she knew it when she saw one she liked. And so do I. Like many car nuts, I've been dreaming of the day I'd get to drive a Porsche, so I know Nanny'd be proud that I can say I finally have.
