I am 22 and I am an Industrial Engineer recently graduated from PennState working in Maryland. In the past, I have worked at 3 car dealerships, JiffyLube, and as a Domino's Delivery Driver, which helped me make the $15 per hour average needed to buy my first car at 21, a 2000 Porsche Boxster 5SPD MT.

Bought it 2 years ago as a retirement toy, a one owner in near mint condition.
Have owned Alpha's, Healey's, Corvette's and built Hot Rods starting at 15. My dad had his auto own shop with machining equipment for overhauling engines. Those where the days.

52. In IT - I support a computer language called SAS and have taken on the Business Objects admin role. I've worked at Mutual of Omaha for 30 yrs - been thru 5 downsizings.
My first Porsche was an 01S I bought in 2005. Traded it in on my 08S LE exactly 4 yrs ago. Added the Cayman last March. I also own a 79 Mustang Pace Car - bought it when it was 3 mo old (31 yrs ago). Guess I have to include the 02 Audi TT roadster that I currently own but it's a car I plan to flip / sell.
My first car was a 70 Mustang Mach 1. It was well used by the time I owned it, but it was fun.

I'm 47 and I own a tube bending & fabrication shop; I build roll cages, headers and exhausts. I also help as a tech inspector for Rocky Mountain Region-PCA and NASA. Before opening my fabrication shop, I worked in risk management and was a management consultant for a large accounting and consulting firm.
I've always loved Porsches, ever since my younger days of working on and racing VWs in Southern California. I've worked on cages and exhausts for lots of Porsches, but only recently became an owner - in October, my wife Jen and I flew out to Cali, bought my sister's Boxster, and then drove it home to Colorado over the weekend. What a fun way to get to know a car!
I also have a pair of junior dragsters that my kids race, a '62 Cadillac, '00 Mustang GT that I used to race, and a '79 911SC project that is trying to decide what it wants to be when it grows up.
