Porsche Genesis- I came from the ricer scene and finally I moved next to a gentleman that had a nice 951S car highly modded, 500hp, and I fell in love with the style. I found out months later it was a Porsche but mainly got one for the style, potential and performance. I have been a member here since 2009 and I can say I am truly thankful for this board and all the members, your knowledge and guidance is greatly valued!

Just so you know that rag mop of a hair-do is gone and I have finally grown facial hair

Porsche Genesis- the 944 was my wife's dream car since 16 candles. We needed another car, and I wanted another garage toy to work on and play with, so we got the 951, and LOVE IT!!! I wanted to get a 300zx TT at first, but this is probably the first time I am glad my wife got what she wanted instead...

First off Butters your hobbies list out like the virgin handbook on how not to get laid


Name: Mike Y.
Age: 26
Location: Phoenix/ Saudi Arabia/ Sydney depends on the month
Occupation: Construction Management
Porsche history: My first experience was when my neighbbor stupidly let me drive his 93 911 RSA. Love at first gear

I ended up buying a rusted out 914 2 weeks later for 900 bucks and fixed it up over a year or so, dropped a valve seat, and scrapped the gear.... went into rallying with my 83 900S, and then my NG900 for 4 years until 8 months-ish ago when I picked up my 85 911 turbo look

Worked on 944's throughout HS and College when I worked at VW audi shops (for some reason poor kids bring their beat up 944/ 924 to VW shops cuz we charge less in labor). Always been a big fan of the 924 and 944 and I need to buy one soon, but I hardly have time for my 911 already.

Sorry I value my success and personal future more than I value getting laid.

I probably already said all this stuff somewhere, but here goes.

Name: Jeff
Age:44
Location: Tucson
Occupation: AH-64D Apache helicopter mechanic/crewchief. Previously Industrial Engineering Analysit
Porsche history: Have loved them and dreamed of one since I was a kid, I grew up near Road America. Finally got a 924S in 2008, and now I'm on Porsche #4, the others were a 1965 912 converted to a 911 Turbo look, and 2 951s.
Hobbies: Anything car or motorcycle related, and gun collecting (not so much these days anymore) and lately Gran Turismo 5, the only game I own for my PS3)

I've had roughly 40 cars since I was a high school starting with muscle cars, and eventually lots of motorcycles (British and Harley classics) and offroad cars and trucks, military vehicles, and VW offroad (Baja) cars.

It will never end!
