39 and I get my NA fix with the 981 CS and my turbo fix with the 991.2 C2S, depending on my mood i can go either way - clearly the 3.4 in my Cayman sounds better but the 3.0TT in the 911 has way more useable and easy to access power.

If I had to do it over again, I would most likely have an NA 991.1 S or GTS intead but now that my 911 is the way I want it and paid for, no way am I getting rid of it.

good thread...

I'm 31 and only considered a .2. I've driven turbo cars pretty much my entire time holding a license, grew up and audi fanboy, so this was an easy transition.

However, I have immense respect and appreciation for the N/A and air-cooled cars. The first porsche I ever drove, and the first porsche I ever rode in are attached in order.

The 993 is my best friend from college car. At 32 he's a good devils-advocate for it not being an age driven preference, some people just like what they like.

I love them all, owned a 993 base Carrera for 17 years, but the 3.0 TT in my T is a magic carpet.
