you know you're a 911 driver when...
you slow down to let the car in front of you to get further ahead...
so you can speed up for the turn.
everything is this thread is so real, it's scary.

You know you're a 911 driver when you regularly jack up the back of the car and clean the oil off of the engine and heat exchangers as if its part of normal car washing routine.

Sorry, I'll go back to my forum.
It's all in good fun - I'm thinking about a 964C4 cabrio.

Back to the thread...
Using the key in the wrong side for your wife's car
...almost everytime...You know you're a 911 owner when:
1. Your kids ask "Are we taking the Porsche today!?" "Yiippeeee!!" (and I drive them to school every morning in either the 964 or the 996TT so I am not really sure why the ask... could be because Mom picks them up in her car...
2. Smelling like old leather and motor oil just feels natural.
3. When you just do not take your foot off the throttle on any curve...

sorry... couldn't resist... slightly OT (but it did say '911' not '964)
You know you're a 911 driver when the engine's warm and you're horizontal and you start freaking out that the engine's all dry.
You know you're a 993 driver when you drive another car and wonder why the windscreen's not creaking.
You know you're a 993TT driver when you KNOW the boost guage is wrong on shut-down, but you still say a little prayer that it isn't REALLY at 0.2Bar.
And finally: you know you're an air-cooled 911 driver when even the possibility of owning the most exotic of machinery has you thinking: "Naaaaa... I'd much prefer to have a second air-cooler... where can I find a 993RS?"

In my case you know you own one when you wash the daily drive with turtle wax rather than the posh stuff.
And, the wife thinks your wierd for spending more time on the car than her!
And, a repair bill for enough to buy your daily drive 10 times over isn't that bad really dear?!?

...you never get "lost" - just confused with more opportunity to drive.
Man, i never knew I was such a "type" before. I've got my wife cracking up over 90% of these!
...When you are a type and you just don't care!
Like the ad says: ...there was the moment you knew you wanted one...and the moment you first owned one... and for the truely afflicted, the 10 or 20 years in between.

You get uncomfortable glances from concerned neighbors or dog walkers wondering why you're in the garage checking or adding oil with the engine running!
