Geez the 986 looks big. All about perspective.

I was about to say, "Hey, that red one's not old!" Then I realized how if I think that, then maybe I'm the one who's old.

Garage looks great! Dig the jumping 930/rocket scientist poster, BTW. I need to find one for my garage, too.

Really like the 73 Targa.
I would love it without the bra!

I have both of those same poster hung up in my garage. Nice garage. Excellent taste in cars.

If you bought a new turbo in those days, Porsche would send you one of their cool turbo posters. It seems like they put something on the license plate area, but I don’t recall what it was.

It was your last name as a personalized plate.

Yeah, that was it. I think I covered mine up with black magic marker.

I was thinking the same thing:
Boxster = "Old" Porsche Guy's Garage
911T = "Old Porsche" Guy's Garage
