That blacked out tail light panel, looks better. I actually like the chrome wheels and stainless window surrounds.

Why would you want a 911 when this is available?

My wife is a teacher. She doesn’t work, June, July, and most of August. Her paid benefits save our family about $14,000 a year in health insurance that I don’t have to pay. Her retirement investment is huge and will be a big part of the nest egg that we will live on for the last 10-30 years of our lives.

140K miles, how did the car hold up? Did it need a clutch? How were the direct-injection carbon deposits on the intake valves?

There were good turbo kits available for the 2.4L if you are interested in more than GXP power. A CTS-V rear diff would be a good idea.

True, but I’ve also been warned of unknown traffic in Class B & C in which other aircraft had their transponder at 1200 or not working properly.

Positive G barrel roll most likely. Cessna made a 150/152 Aerobat which is certified for aerobatics. They are lots of fun.

At a base price of $51,700 there are very few cars (if any) in this segment that can match it.
