I bought my 964 when I was 24, was well happy about that! Ok, it was a bit of a cheat as I turned 25 the following week, but, for the record, I was 24.
Shame that now at 27 it looks like I am selling her and will be 911-less for a couple of years

I was 23years old and got a 1988 944 N/A. Diamond blue with tan interior. Perfect inside and out but not in the engine bay. It was my moms car. However I inherited a nightmare of a money pit. I had tons of maintaince to done to the car. my mother barely drove it. So she did not thing things needed replacing, however after 5 years anyting wears out you know.
It did teach me the cost to own a porsche. And also a little about driving the cars.

I was 21, and it was a '61Super coupe. I loved it. At times, I have tried to shake the "habit", and even spent 10 years car-less thinking I had it licked.
Ha! Fat chance !! Then my boss told me to stop taking taxis and get a car. So I bought a 914/6 with a 2.7L in it. That's a car isn't it? It's all a plot. Look at me late at night before a work day doing this.
