My 13 year old daughter informed me she'll be taking mine with her to college....
I told her if she gets a scholarship that could happen because I'd use her college fund to replace it. My wife wasn't amused but didn't actually say no...so I took that as approval all the way around

My step daughter 'thinks' she will get one on the sweet sixteen. Mom is ok with it, I'm thinking it needs to be an OB.

It is my hope that Ang and I will far outlive our cars, and if not, I've done my job right.

You need to ask Justin about this, in certain shades of sun, his is pink. We accept him for how he is, don't ask questions.

Everything I own is going to "Public Television". If you enjoy watching the programs please consider doing the same. Your estate will recieve the box set addition of Celtic Dancing. (LOL)

Seriously, my 8 year old son has layed claim to the Porsche and the BMW. Guess those early morning weekend runs and late night tech sessions have paid off.

It's already in my will to my son (who turns 16 in 2 months). The girls can fight over the Impala, the Hyundai and the Grand Caravan.

I'll start both of my boys out with 924s, then when they have proven themselves as RESPONSIBLE drivers then and only then will they get 928s.

928 to daughter; 924 to son.

That was easy.

G'luck all.

Same here, except their first cars will likely be used Volvo's or Hondas.

If my 9 & 10 yr old girls can show that they are the exact OPPOSITE of their mother when it comes to cars, they may inherit any nice cars I may have.

If they do not prove worthy, hmm, good question.

My younger son is about 24. He loves his old 944, which itself is 23.

But he was the one who first drove the shark. His jaw dropped open and eyes went big as saucers when he punched it in third gear. He turned to me and said, "Whoa, what IS this thing?"

His main comp right now is the younger daughter, at 20. A nursing student who knows how to do powerslides. She hasn't driven it yet, but that's probably next.

Tell me how it turns-out.

I think I'll be buried in mine, save the poor firemen the trouble of extraction.

Did he do something to upset you? That is a lifetime of wrenching....
