Thanks for all of the responses -- it is great that there are so many owners that are 65+ years old! I am looking forward to ordering my C2S Cab GT Silver MT as soon as an allocation becomes available.

72 here. 8 P cars over the years. 1st was an '87 944S (talk about balanced), 2nd was a '90 964 .....some others... currently '17 Macan Turbo PP, '18 Panny (wife's main car) & '20 992 (was set for ED until 2 weeks before pickup date, Covid shutdown Europe)
All different cars. Loved 'em all - 992 is the best. Ingress / egress is good stretching exercise.

47. My 958 Cayenne was my first Porsche at 36 in ‘11, loved the redesign and then moved into a Macan Turbo in ‘14, sold that shortly after my 992 arrived last Feb. I don’t see a future without a Porsche in the stable.

28 years old here. Bought my first pre owned Cayman S at 23, traded that in for the 991.1 at 26, and just upgraded this weekend to the 992. Been very fortunate to work for a wonderful company right out of college, and taking advantage of the fact that I don't have kids yet. I know the day will come when I have to be more practical... but im not ready for that day yet!

...and maybe the Porsche will be paid off by then too.

First Porsche. Targa 4S. Wanted a 911 since working at a Porsche dealer's body shop 45 years ago but other things took priority (wife and kids).

Bought my first porsche at 20 in 1990 as a senior in college (1978 911 SC targa for 10K - pretty much my life savings at the time)... on my 8th and still loving it at 52!

The best part of the first Porsche story - sold the 1978 911SC for 5K more than I bought it for 5 years later. And did nothing but a few oil changes (myself) and a few set of tires :-)

This could be the first time in some 25 - 30 years I can sell my current 911 more than I bought it for... But I will keep it for a while longer and order a new targa soon...
