I joined in 1982. I had a one year lapse in the 1990s and then finally quit a few years ago. Don’t recall the exact year. The last new Porsche I bought was a 2008 Boxster S RS 60 Spyder (A ridiculous name but a great value) which I enjoyed as much as all of my other Porsches. I bought it for the wife but she didn’t drive it much and I ended up putting most of the miles on it the last few years we had it. I still went to the Porsche club breakfast every Saturday in Tulsa, but I sold my house there and moved so I don’t see those guys anymore. Still talk to a few of them on the phone but that’s about it.
I still may build a 914/6 hot rod someday, I haven’t quite gotten those cars out of my system yet. Or, I might hot rod the hell out of a Boxster, who knows? And the last new Porsche that really floated my boat was the 997 turbo S but I don’t see myself ever buying one. Nothing in their current lineup interests me, at all.
I owned 13 Porsches over the last 40 years, hard to say if I’ll have another one or not.
