Another new owner, from Maryland

Hello,

Been into Porsche for a while, never thought I would own one. A new neighbor posted his 2001 Base for sale and here I am.

In 1996 I worked at an airport when car magazine guys came. They let me choose a car to get a ride up and down the runway with in the morning. Of course I chose the 993 Turbo. I remember big acceleration followed by extreme braking.

At the time I had a poster on my wall: a purple 993 Turbo with the words, "Kills bugs fast." It was cool to get that ride.

In the early 2000s I lived near Willow Springs and went to the PCA, POA, and the one Tribute to Lemans events. Always cool to see the cars flogged. My roommates family owned the track so I spent a lot of time there. I started racing motorcycles when I wasn't falling off them.

Anywho, I am here to learn and try to keep this car road worthy without going broke.

Cheers

Ray
