---almost a 1993 NSX, I litterally had a check in my hand and flew all the way to Chicago, but just couldn't justify it as a daily driver in the end, I regret it sometimes---

2000 Porsche Boxster S


I like the fact that I've owned all sorts of cars and that I'm only 24

My next car is either going to be a Z4 M Roadster, 2007 Boxster S or 1997 NSX.

The only ones I can remember:

1980 Triumph TR6
2002 MB E430
2006 987S

Everything else was just a blur, even the 4x4 we currently own - what is it, "broken" compared to the 987S. Always drive with the top down and flash other Pcars. Really, I can't even remember the year of the Triumph it was so long ago - I'm too old to think back that far and it's hurting my brain. My son can't wait to drive the Pcar, he's already learned how to drive the Benz and he's only just turned 13. Don't know how he'll be w/the clutch though - could be a little dicey.

Cheers,
