    Porsche Excellence Was Expected by: Karl Ludvigsen

    If your'e looking to buy this book right now you are probably considering one of two options of what to do with it once you buy it.

    The first option is to actually read the book; obtaining information from it you could have just googled.

    The second and more likely option is that you are going to let this book sit on a shelf, and every time you walk past your going to say to yourself "That's gonna be worth something some day."

    The good news is this book has qualities that appeal to both reasons.

    The first is that while the cover may only be in "fair" condition, with a few tears along the sides. The rest of the book is in excellent shape, which is good if you intend on reading it.

    If your looking to make a profit in a few years, the inflation rate is 2% a year for the U.S dollar. This book costs 95$, if you hold on to it (or forget that you own it) for ten years (or whenever you actually decide to clean you garage) the book will be worth about $116-$118. while that same amount of money will have the equivalent worth of $95 today. It is still a better option that the stock market, and you get a nifty book too.

    (I don't want any comments on my interpretation of economics, just remember that our economic crisis is the fault of your generation (any one over 25) not mine)

    Condition: Fair

    Price: $95 (free shipping to continental U.S) (Cheaper than amazon or ebay at time of posting)

    All profit goes to fund my 912 restoration project

    Sigh....

    You try to teach some things and they just don't listen.

    The book is in very nice condition, it's the paper book cover that's in fair condition. No rips, stains, tears, etc.

    Yes, the funds actually go to his 912, he has to earn every dollar, and he has paid for the book himself.

    cheers,

    I do know it all

    You see my father was born just after dirt was invented, and water was invented while he was in kindergarten.

    Needless to say there wasn't internet, or internet short hand while he was growing up. If you notice he signed his name with an "E" after it, in attempt to appear younger on the internet. If he didn't get to school on the back of a dinosaur, he might know that the "e" is supposed to be lower case.
