Also, if you see a p-car that you haven't seen around your town, and you pull over in whatever your driving (if your not driving your p-car, you wish you were just to show it off) and take a look at it, and hey sometimes even try and find the owner and just strike up a conversation. (I catch my self doing this all the time)

Does having a Porsche room count? Or try this one. My grandma was making a quilt for me and asked what I wanted. I said I dunno, I'm only into Porsches. It took her months to do. I have it proudly displayed on the wall in the stairwell...

SHe keeps asking when I'm going to use it, i told her I don't want to mess it up, she said she made it for me to use. I guess it's the same for the cars, they're meant to use, not display, lol. I guess I'll have to lay off the car collector guys huh?

Wow that is hilarious. That guy need to be punched directly in the throat, kung fu style or what-have-ya. What a d-bag. *Shakes head*

Second generation here. My dad bought a 930 new in 88. Brought it home on my birthday December 23rd. Too much of what little extra I have goes into that car and DE events. I will be spending a significant amount of my income on racing when I get out of school. At least that is the plan.

I come from a family of porsche fanatics.

Between 3 generations we have owned just about every major porsche out their that doesnt cost what a decent two story 4 bedroom home does.

I myself have owned 3 so far. I plan on buying a 928GTS to go with my fathers S4 as well as a clean 911t(maybe a 993 or 996 model).

I consider myself pretty hard core when it comes to autos in general.

Maybe I should take a pic of my huge porsche flag I bought in Vegas a few years back.

Honeslty,
I could waste the rest of rennlists band widths talking me and my addiction to my hobby. I am too long winded and have way to many outragous stories.
I think the most insane thought was that Seriously considering quiting my job and going to work for the Porsche Shop and work side by side with my Mechanic. Not to say it is an honest living. Just that I am that addicted. I figured how freaking great could it be to every day of my life wake up and work on Porsches all day long. Caymens, boxsters, ect.....! Then ins and outs.
Instead I becasue of my job moving about 1 1/2 hours away from Stuttgart, GM! Yes, I am happy
take a big guess where my 951's motor will be totaly rebuilt?
