How Old Were You & How Did You Purchase Your First Porsche?

[Rick V]

My Dad was Porsche tech, many many moons ago, like 40, I have wanted one for as long as I can remember. I grew up with them (I remember when the 914 was a new car). I saved my money as best as I could. This was hard since I have no further education, other than the training I get from work.( I am a Porsche mechanic)I finally decided to pull the trigger on my dream car about 5 years ago. I bought my SC. I payed cash for it, as I did with my 944S, my 71T. I did however finance the Boxster, It was a spur of the moment gift for my wife.
I guess my best advice is to save your money, and just pay cash. Had I bought my car when I was younger I am sure it would have not ended up well, for me or the car.
As with anything in life, don't rush into it, take your time, keep your focus, and be patient, it will pay off in the end.
