61, I owned a pre A 356 back in late 60's and first half of 70's. sold it in SF when first kid came along, to make a down payment on one of those (too expensive) houses out there. My wife apparently remembered, because when I moved back to US after 10 years or so of working overseas, she had a very nice 986 Boxster S waiting in the driveway when I. Arrived from the airport.

Girlfriend or Porsche
62 Staff Optometrist for one of the top health plans in the US. First Porsche. I always have enjoyed working on cars. Mostly GM in the past. My 2002S was acquired 2 yrs ago, with 31,000 mi and is my daily driver. Kind of 60th BD present. The wife said I could have a girlfriend or a sports car, but not both. I figured the Porsche would be cheaper.
