First Porsche at 46 was a new 2001 Boxster S. My current Porsche is an 2004 C2 Cab and I purchased it new on my 49th birthday. I am now 51 so I managed to buy my Porsche's while I was still in my forties!

Just got my 99 C4 Cab @ age 36.

Having bought a house in the peak of the market doesn't leave much spare change :/.

thanks,
Amir

Trand in 2 BMWs plus 10k for 996 when I was 36, 39 now. damn, those car were expensive back then...

Absolutely! Have owned it for about 4 months and it has been in the shop 70% of the time. They have two techs from Italy looking at it on Thursday.

They look great but i dont think you are supposed to drive them. Have heard the 06's are much better. Might give them one more chance!
