Exactly...I wanted this car more then any other car before or since from the first time I saw it.
When I had put myself into a position to own it almost 10 years later I went for it and haven't looked back since. I don't see myself ever selling this car.
BTW I'm 28 now got it two years ago.

+1 - I was 17, and just getting my license. The dad of a friend of mine had one (guard's red/blk), and I have NEVER been as jealous in my life. 10 years later, and I have my dream car - the oldest car I've ever owned, and by far the best.

Wonder if the guy's dad still owns his, or if he sold it...

Very impressive esp for members in their 20's/early 30's....Now my question to all the young members is....How long have you financed your 993 TT for ? Any way here's my journey to my child hood dream/poster car,a 930 Turbo...
'95: came to this country.....age 30y
'99: Supra TT
'03: ///M3-4
'04: Finally got my wish full filled....bought my dream car,a '91 C2 Turbo age 39y

I'm a newbie. Never posted here before. Age 52 - will be 53 in a few weeks. Located in Atlanta. I bet I am the only 993TT owner here with an implanted cardioverter defribulator (ICD) in my chest. After a ride from here to our Lake Oconee home the adrenaline is pumping and my pacemaker kicks in. I tell everyone it is my personal onboard turbo - keeps my idle speed regualted. The 993TT is great therapy.

427 69 Camaro at age 19, bought it myself, had a good job as an ironworker. College at age 20. At your ripe old age of twenty something I satisfied my need for speed by flying fighters in the Navy and then the Air Force. After retirement I once again had to pay for my own toys thus a 96 Carrera, new. Now a 97 tt at age 56. C class Concours winner 2005 (Chicago PCA) and now Road America DE type. "Too young not to have fun".

Great bio & great car.

i'm 25. bought my 993S @ 22
can't wait to get my 993TT this winter as my 26th birthday present to myself.

I got lucky with that whole pro athlete salary thing...my rule is i can buy an aircooled 911 for every rental property i own. I probably saved most of the money for the second one just by never drinking or gambling with my teammates
