I bought a 996 turbo last June and am delighted with it.
However, new tax rules w/e from April this year mean that an EV is very cheap (on a true cost basis) for any business owner.
There is barely any difference in cost between the Tesla Model 3 models - and a Performance is affordable.
Bearing in mind that this would be a third car - as I need to keep the 7 seater x5 - how on earth can I justify keeping the 996 turbo when the Model 3 Performance has it licked on paper on just about every single metric?
I am very reluctant to sell the 996, but I know what my wife will do the first time she floors the Model 3; turn to me and say "er, and you need the 911 because.....?"
If prices were rising, I guess that might be justification - but of course they are not, they are flat or falling [EDIT: I dont actually know this, I just assume it to be the case!], and it costs to keep a car like the 996 turbo on the road.
Can anyone come up with a reason to keep the 996?
