And i I agree when I put some time behind the wheel and put it through its paces it definitely runs better.
There is a cheaper and slower Porsche alternative for a 16th Birthday Present... It's called a 944 base model. They are built better than most cars on the road today, very affordable (especially an automatic) with great handling & braking and great gas mileage. Really the perfect beginners car. I purchased an 87 auto for my son's "early" graduation present for $3900 with 100K on the clock. Needed the usual deferred maintenance, tune up, TB, Balance Belt, front engine oil seals, etc, but nothing you can't do yourself... The exterior & paint were awesome and the interior is a 9 of 10. I've got all of $4500 in the car. Of course, he'd rather have my 928 (who wouldn't), but he loves the 944 and it's the only Porsche in the school parking lot! I think I got off cheap and I got the Best Dad award for 2017!!!! Get 'em before the prices start to go up!!

I live in Jenks now, but lived in the OKC metro for 20 years before moving here.

Heck yeah Olmann, that would be great. I was sitting around this weekend wishing there was someone here locally to talk 928’s with.
