I owned a Porsche?
Wasn't it Jerry Garcia who said "If you remember the sixties, you weren't there"

There's a similar thread on the 993 forum: OT: How did you buy your first Porsche? , check out my reply there (and a lot of other good stories as well!)

Right now, I'm 16 with a 928S--upon which I am paying insurance. Hopefully by the time I graduate college, I will have around 20,000 to spend on a used 80's 911.

16, parents gave me a 97 cavalier

21, bought myself a 951, gave back the cavalier. (Still borrow it when the 951 is dead.)

Dunno where I'll be in the future, but I know there'll be a 911 turbo in it for me at some point.
