Right watching this Reader Ride section, figured I should really speak more about my GT6.
In a nut shell in 2001 I was really itching to own a classic. I almost bought a Mustang, but truly wanted a late 60’s 911. The reality was I could never really afford a Porsche.
Then one day at work we spotted the ad online. Did a search and found a few limited images of a GT6.
Hook line and sinker.
So after more then 7 years of ownership this GT6 are well bound for life.
I’ve learned so many new skills because of the car, meet so many wonderful people and had a great time.
Still, out of all of this I learned some big lessons. Should have listened to my wife :)
I’d be driving a very well sorted out exotic by now if I had not gotten into the GT6, but no point in regretting life.
