How did you get into Porsches?

[Bryan topping]

Hi everyone,
I wanted to start a new thread for everyone to share how they got interested in owning a Porsche.
Let us know:
The first time you saw a Porsche & what was your reaction?
Your first through current Porsche.
Anything else you might want to share

I saw my first one when I was about 7 or 8 YO, I'm 54 now. It was a 356 Speedster & I asked my dad "what was that!!!!??" He smiled & told me it was a Porsche, I knew I had to have one. Bought my first (a 1970 914) when I was 18. Inherited a 1966 911 from my dad. On my 3rd now (2001 Boxster).
