Good Video.

I have been asked may times over the years "why a Porsche" and it is never a simple answer. I participate in a car show held once per year in Guthrie, OK. Everything from rat rods, to very average cheap cars to really nice restorations of older cars, custom to stock. I have a chair next to my car and answer questions.

My 85 911 has 186,000 miles on it, I have driven it to 41 states and Canada and plan to hit all 48 states, and possibly a ferry trip to Alaska so 49 states are possible.

What other mid 1980s car would you drive to Laguna Secca, or Roebling Road, or multiple other race tracks, go as fast as I can around the track, and then drive it home?

What other 1980s car would you take your wife to eastern PA to the Poconos and do a 10 day 3,650 mile round trip. My car has tripled in value, and it runs and stops and looks great. Oh, year I won the Porsche class at that car show. First place.

There really is no substitute for a Porsche.
