I think that refers to those who buy the car new.

I'm 35, and just picked up my 05 C2S one month ago. I'm envious of all of you who were able to afford one before turning 30.

Bought my first Porsche as a teenager,--aged 19. It was used,--a one year old 914-4.

Bought my second Porsche when I was 22--a new 911S, with factory delivery.

My third when I was 29,--a narrow-body 911 turbo (2-years old).

Finally, ordered the 06 in 05 and took delivery of it in Europe when I was 51.

A total of 5 decades of Porsche driving! What is it they say? Life is too short to be driving Chevys.

Haven't been on Rennlist in months. Now I remember why. Someone asks an innocent question and gets assaulted. I'm going back to 6speed for good.
By the way, for the original poster, I'm 37 and got the car (my first Porsche) at 36.
