My current toy, a 993 has gone up in value since I bought it, I've spent $2K or so on insurance and probably $3+ K in maintenance. I just ordered a set of RH Techart rims for $2K and just installed a Becker refurbished and updated stereo for $1000......so have I made money? Well if I sold it and didn't factor in anything other than purchase and sale price then maybe.

My greatest fear is that my heirs will sell my stuff for what I told my ex-wives I paid for it.
