You and I couldn’t be more different! Whether it’s cymbals, guitars, Porsches or a Rolex, I buy them in mint condition but can’t wait to use and wear them down to the bone. A few years ago I bought a 35 year old Porsche with perfect paint, and now it looks like someone took buckshot to it.

Haha, I totally get that. Famous Porsche designer and builder Magnus walker agrees with you and is an inspiration to me. I use the heck out of everything I own but I take great care of things. Just sold my ten year old 911 Carrera S Cabriolet, was paid by the dealer as much as when I bought it 7 years ago and they rolled it right onto the showroom floor where it sold almost immediately.

Btw, my wife is the same way about things. While some women are having their nails done or at a hair salon, my wife will roll her little convertible out of the garage and completely wash and wax it. Her car is 8 years old and showroom fresh!
