I could afford the 911 as well....but at that point I look at it like a status symbol. I can see spending the money on a well sorted out sports car, but if I can do it and get the same satisfaction AND keep $40K in my account....I consider it a win. But I'm a cheap bastard.
And I don't buy for a "name". I buy because something gives me joy in driving it. Hell, my current Corvette is beyond my scope as a driver and it's a "lowly" C6 with just a few mods.
