There must be something that is intrinsically "male" about Porsches...I stopped at the gas station and this 4 year old kid circled my car. He didnt know why....or cared. I laughed...and thought "Yep, I'm a four year old". It's why we put up with the suffering..

That's awesome. Exactly. I've never had a car I've felt quite this way about before- it's just 'fun' and others actually feel it too. It's like one of my old R/C toy cars of yore has come to life or something. My boy doesn't get this excited about the S8 or the old A4 (and especially my wife's Grand Cherokee). Already been stopped a few times in public too (and it's a big hit with friends/family/coworkers). This is a totally new experience for me.

2:15- The kid's gonna be a musician. Look at his shift patterns, in perfect synchronization with the beat of the music...

Too cute

Yes...BUT I dont feel the connection, "aesthetically' with newer models...it's weird. I appreciate the technical advancements and all but have no desire to own one. The 944/951 is transcendent design...or "universally" affects. I picked this particular model for a reason..

I know, I can't seem to find a car that ''looks'' better than a 944/951 to me.
