Still the best car I’ve ever driven. I had an opportunity to buy one back in the 90s for what was quite a lot of money back then, but a pittance compared to what that car is worth now (the current owner declined a AUD$1.5m offer for it!). Not pushing the boat out an buying that car remains my greatest automotive regret.
Well, first of all, great post! It really reached out to me.
Second, yes, that car is a true masterpiece. And it is the car who made me the Porsche fan I am today. At least since i realised i loved cars. From front to back, the only thing I can come up with is.. "Wow!"

Certainly a dream to drive one. Back then it was only a 20 y/o car, likely at the best value because of that. Now, at 48 years, prices are insane.

The RS 2.7 is absolutely my favorite version of all(factory) 911s.
Besides that iconic ducktail spoiler, raw handling, and best of all, that engine sounds so good!
Definitely the holy grail of all 911s, a true driver's car!
