I bet he's over the moon.

Just a thought to avoid a potential disaster - make sure he's covered on the insurance. If the car is insured as a classic with Agreed Value, those policies usually require drivers of those cars to be 25 years old.

Why he didn't ask for the GTS?

Default old joke...

Optimist: Father who will freely give his teenage son the keys to the 928.

Pessimist: Father who won't.

Cynic: Father who did.




Congrats to both you and your son for a couple important milestones!
