We’ve been a one car family for a long time, and more often than not that one car has been an extrmely safe and practical and boring Toyota Highlander.
We find more and more we really need a second vehicle now and then, so I’m thinking this could be my pre midlife crisis hot rod! My wife values reliability over all else, which is why she insists on leasing a new Highlander every 3 years as our primary car (which we’ll continue to do).
I’d still like something reliable and a decent investment, not something that would be in the shop all the time or something that would just look pretty in the garage - I want to actually drive it and have some fun.
So... I’ve always dreamt of owning a Porsche 911 - my first thought was to find something like a 2000’s 996 model - maybe a CS as I might be driving it in the snow in a pinch. Unfortunately would need an auto trans so my wife could drive it easily. They seem to be well built and have good resell value should i decide to sell it a few years down the road. For around 30k is there anything else I should consider?
