52, my fourth Porsche.

Irony is, I bought my 996 after a rough cancer diagnosis (melanoma) and all that impending doom. I've been on 3x weekly Interferon injections, the medicine is not nice. I should finish in June. When I bought my 996 from the long-time 2nd owner, we discovered that he had cancer as well and that was why he bought it too. He was actually on the clinical trials of the Interferon. The car is magnificent and serves as a very nice distraction from an ugly dx/treatment. I've had some great cars previously, but wanted a good 911 all my life.

Bought my first 6gt3 over 10 years ago. Now at 37years old back for another one! And is a lucky owner of a 6rs! I'll save that so my kids can enjoy it as well.

Bought mine January 22, 2014. I was 33. 2004 C2.

Ever since reading an Autoweek article about the 996 GT3, I've wanted a 996 of some variety. I looked for over a year for this car, and love every minute of it.
