You could probably buy a second BMW for the cost of maintaining the 911. I thought that BMW parts were expensive until I saw the cost of an engine ECU or an ABS control unit. Working on a BMW engine is a pleasure compaired to fixing oil leaks in the 911. I will admit that a ride in the 964 was really impressive. I never would have tried to push a BMW that far.
