Wow, Groove! That's brand ambassadorship right there. Still on #1. Plotting fun ways to hit 60K miles.

Wow. I'm only on #1, and I've done maybe 29000km in the last 2½ years or so, including a couple of tracks. This car's a keeper.

Just two so far, though I only got my first a couple years ago. Hope to keep both of these and add more in due time.

I'm just on number 6, but am thoroughly impressed by the diversity of you cars, that cool house, and your devotion to a bitchin' hair game.

Wow, love those pictures! Impressive history and collection indeed. Wish you many more years and many more cars to come! (and post pics!)

I'm only on #2. Had a 987 Cayman S and now the 997.2. Considered adding more but nowadays Porsche prices has gone crazy. I mean....$140k for a loaded C4S? That is more than a new GT3 or Turbo from the 997 era. And new Turbos are close to Mclaren/entry Ferrari territory. My next one will probably have to wait a while, unless I get some incredible luck career wise, or if I become single again!

Hats off to the OP!

My current 2008 997.1 C4S is number 2. Should have never sold my first - 1995 993.

Bought my first, a one year old 914-4 in 1974. Fun little car, which got up to 34 mpg! Then ordered a new 77 911S when I moved to German, a mere 50 miles from Zuffenhausen. Terrible year for the 911. Then I traded it away for a 1981 911SC-turbo. Incredible handling, and speed. Sold that and got my 2006 Carrera S Cabriolet (PTS). Than added a one-owner 356C (65) in 2014. I have a friend who buys several a year. I have no idea how many Porsches he has owned but I know of at least 20 or more! (We think he has his own window at the California DMV).
