I had a '52 XK120 Roadster, metallic gold with wire wheels. What a chic catcher ( I won't talk about the electrics - let legends live in peace).

My first car was a '78 'Vette. (..ok, Chevette.. )

My first Porsche was an '88 944 n/a. I owned it for just over five years. Over the next five years, I went through a '72 911T, a '73 911T parts car, an '84 911 Turbo Look, a '99 Boxster (blue), an '88 911 Carrera, and now another '99 Boxster. But it will probably go up for sale this spring/summer so I can try something else!

Can't really say which is my favorite Pcar. For some reasons, the '88 911. For others, the '72 911. For best overall car, the '99 Boxster(s). But I've thoroughly enjoyed them all.

My first car was an 88 VW Jetta.

My first Porsche was a 2001 C4 I got brand new when I was 23. I'm damn lucky I didn't kill myself in it!
