First 911 at 18. I'm now 36, but with 4 kids 9 and under...so call me 40...at least! Now that I think of it, I had my '94 Speedster when I met my wife, so I guess I can blame the P-Car for so many kids!!!

46. Have had a mantra for 20 years.
- Harley in my 30s.
- Porsche in my 40s.
- Lear in my 50s.

Two down, one to go.

That's probably because we're all hauling our kids around to all their activities and have no time to read the forums. Well, not ENOUGH time LOL.

40 here. And yes this is my mid-life crisis. And it won't ever go away, either.

40 - currently a 997.1 C2 cab. First 911 was a 996 C2 coupe at 35.

The use of the word "first" sounds better when used about Porsches rather than wives...

Only this past week I bought my fifth Porsche, a new CS Cabriolet. My first was a 356SC Cabriolet picked up in Zuffenhausen. I am 72.
