Remember the cost of long distance
Bargain hunted for long distance plans
Had to change a phone number when moving to a new state

I am 18 years old and proud to own a Porsche. No I am not in the least spoiled or in huge heaping amounts of debt over my car. Granted, it is my first car that I can say I own. I got one hell of a deal on it to which I am so grateful for. I'm not like most teens of my generation. I am not stupid and careless like others. I have priorities that I hold high above anything else. I consider my self smart with my hard earned money and what I do with it. My dream and everyday drive to keep it going is becoming the owner of a company that started from one simple idea. But I don't want to sit here and bore you with my life long goal. But some day I will get there, me and my little blue Boxster.

There is something about ambition and a Porsche. I once read a flabbergasted quote by a guy that met at a young leaders conference. Just asked a few what they wanted to drive, he was overwhelmed by the fact most every individual said they wanted a Porsche. Many were going into fields and careers where they could afford "better" but what they all wanted, very simply was, a Porsche.

Not to bust your stones or anything, but it looks like your vehicle registration expired in January. So be smart, and spend your hard earned money on getting it registered. 
The old registration must have been in the PO's name. Is the car in your name yet? Gotta pay that sales tax, you know?
Just sayin'...........

Yes everything is and was in my name when the picture was taken. The picture was taken before it expired and after the front bumper was replaced.

More power to you younger owners. I won't speak for others but I'm a bit jealous that I got into my 50's and finally own my own Porsche.
I did get to drive my father's 914 in my teens and I wanted to buy it in my early 20s. He was a wise man and he loves me, he wouldn't sell it to me.
Be very careful about moving so fast, you youngsters.
Driving my Boxster makes me feel young.
Working on it, under it, makes me realize and feel my age
What will you have to drive to feel the same in 20-30 years?
