At the car show last fall in historic Guthrie, OK I set up my chair behind my car along with some other fellow Porsche drivers.
I had several dozen guys from 14 years old to 60 tell me that my 911 is the car they think of when someone says Porsche 911. Many of the older guys said they had a poster of a 911 Turbo on the wall when they grew up. I chatted about the car, and most people have only vague knowledge of the car. Most knew it was air cooled and had a engine in the rear, but that was about it. Many were amazed that I did the vast majority of the work, and it was not some exotic finicky car. Most were amazed to hear I had driven it to 41 states, on a quest to drive to all the lower 48 states.
For people that had clean shoes I let them sit it in, and the kids all had a huge smile, grabbed the steering wheel and pretended to drive. I spent most of the day talking about my car, and about G body 911s to strangers. I ended up winning first place for the category.
Several people asked to take a picture of them next to my 911. It was of course a car show and everyone there was a "car person" and liked cars. It was a long and fun day.
