Well, over 100K puts you on the downward path for re$ale. In my view that provides a clear head to just enjoy the heck out of it and not worry about value -- that is if you were thinking about it to begin with. Enjoy!

Congrats!

The reason your machine is running so well is because you are DRIVING IT! Cars that sit around get “lot rot” and always have more problems.

Porsches, and most other operating machinery, are designed to run, not sit.

Keep your car as your daily driver and it will love you for it. My own 2002 cab has 69,000 miles and it too is my daily driver. Runs like a champ!
