Rode to school in the 60s in the back of Dad's 356B, silver/red. After he wrecked it in '69, he waited until '72, and then bought a dented-up 1966 912.
He restored it [painted white], then again in the 80s [painted red], and just completed the THIRD resto in 2003 [white again], and it's now a show car. Sometimes he talks about selling it, but doesn't mind parking it in the driveway just to admire it.
We'd sit in all of 'em, unable to see over the dash, pretending to drive, practicing shifting while making engine sounds! I'll sometimes drive the 912. Not fast, but still elegant. Nostalgia of the old 356B no doubt gripped me when I bought my ratty silver/red 986 last year.
