Default My first porsche. Why did I wait so long?
Can't believe I waited so long. Now I see what all the fuss is about.

After many performance cars AMG' (one which I still own an will never sell) corvettes etc. I decided to try the 911 and all I can say is wow.

Went to the north Georgia mountains with my neighbor, he drove his ferrari 430 and we had a ton of clean fun. Surprised of how much faster and shure footed the 991 was in the twisties than the 430.

PDK. The wife wanted the "option" to be able to drive it.

Because I was too focused on HP numbers. Every time I considered a P car and I looked at the numbers, for the money, I passed it for a higher HP car. Big mistake, the total package is what I should have been looking at.

Being honest.
