Well there are worse things in the world than being an newly minted adult
and having a PORSCHE!!! A tough act to follow at such an age.
I've lost count of the number of middle aged guys who have approached me while I was refueling or diving into a 7-11 and said something like "you have my dream car". ALMOST made feel guilty. One guy who I worked with long ago who wasn't even really a sports car guy told me if nothing else worked out for him in life no matter what happened he would one day "own a Porsche".

I still don't understand how with Porsche parts and labor being so ridonkulusly over priced how they can take underwrite full coverage for less than a $1000 per year.
I went to a high end Porsche body shop here in NJ (quality auto) and was quoted nearly $4K to repaint a bumper, hood and fix a teeny fender dent. I can only imagine how expensive a really big repair would cost.
