Ed's original owner poll got me thinking. With some 951's approaching 30 years old, it would be interesting to see how many owners are still younger than their 951?

I'm 21, the car is coming up on 28. The age difference has not stopped the love affair.

I am betting I am in a very, very, small group here.
I am considerably older then my car (over 2x and change), and I think I may be the only one who bought his car new ,and still owns it...
**** .... I feel like a freakin' dinosaur

More than 2x the age of mine too. The upside is I can still get in and out of it even with it lowered - no problem!
