Bought the car 1,5 months ago.
Turning 30 this year and like to think that it wasn't an act of panic <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />

I'm 51 and on my 4th Porsche, 5th house, 1st wife, 3rd degree, and 1st son.

Good God......I'm 51!!! How the hell did that happen?

Oh well, as a middle school principal, we educators believe that you work with kids of the age at which your own emotional development was arrested. My wife agrees... but it keeps me young!!!

I'm 35.

Average age on this thread thus far 40.2 years!!!

Just got my 93 RSA 3 weeks ago, but have wanted a Porsche since since 1973! I still have a metal 'matchbox' type 911S my father gave me when I was 6.

I read somewhere recently that the average age of Porsche owners worldwide is 49. The average age of Cadillac drivers is 47. If people find this out, the Porsche will be known as the geazermobile.

Turn 41 in July, bought mine as a 40th to myself. Riccardo no comments on age/looks please.....
Still think I'm 25, still in the gym thrice weekly, still play computer games, still don't know what I want out of life, but happy anyway.

Hmm. The average age here is 40.2, including Bill Wagner at 103 will increase the average a touch, but probably not enough to put my age here gracefully.

I will say the first time I rode in a Porsche was 45 years ago <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="eek.gif" /> (I was 11 and have been a fan ever since )

This forum must be a market researchers dream!

I'm 33. Me and the wife fulfilled our promise of P.B.K. - Porsche Before Kids, albeit by a pretty narrow margin.

Phil R - I windsurf too, but can't bring myself to take the P-car. We try to get to Tiree at least once a year.

And Scupper - don't forget, 60 is the new 40!
