What you you all think of a vintage 911? A friend of mine wants to go halfsies
on one. He seems to like the 911SC as the engine is supposedly bulletproof. I
think the earlier 911T, E or S are better looking but they are prohibitively
expensive.

If less of the fuel's energy is lost as heat, that could increase the
