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

I am 31 and I bought my 964C2 with 29.
Bought the car because I got addicted to the 911 as I was 10, my grand-pa offered me a Yellow 1:18 911 2.4S targa from Bburago since this time I was infected by the 911 virus, and promised myself to get one before 30.

Gruezi to all ThLi

I'm 27. Similar to Thomas, i've wanted a 911 since i was around 8 years old, due to a poster of a red turbo my dad put on my bedroom wall.
