10 Years Ago Today...

I joined the Porsche family. I purchased my first Porsche: a 2001 Boxster S w/ 15K mi and CPO from Boardwalk Porsche in Plano, TX. Made the deal (with trade) in 3 phone calls. My sales associate was Davis Speight, who was amazing.

My sister lives in the Dallas metroplex, so I drove down on July 4 and watched fireworks. Prior to arriving, I told her I was coming and it was going to be a quick trip with me leaving the day after I bought the car. She said I should bring my golf clubs along and stay a cpl days. I was in the midst of a horrific golf funk and said I'd be wasting my money if I played golf. She found a coupon and arranged a golf lesson for the afternoon at Hank Haney's golf ranch. So the plan was to pick up the car in the morning and have the lesson in the afternoon.

So we're having breakfast that morning and my sister asks me if I'm excited about buying a Porsche (which happened to also be the most expensive car I'd ever purchased by $10K). I said no, actually I was more excited / nervous about the golf lesson. She said I was crazy.

Got the car and paperwork done and off the ranch. The lesson helped.

I had darker hair back then.

So when did you buy your first Porsche?
