OK, I can’t contain myself any longer! I have long been a mild Porschephile and have debated for more years than I’d like to admit on which series of 911 I’d like to get. My passion for them goes back far enough that I could have gotten an SC for a little over $10k with some miles and maybe needing some work. Ah well, I couldn’t even afford that for a toy car being just out of college and the like…
Anyway, we have relocated to Stuttgart for a second time and I’ve decided this time I’m bringing one back! On our last tour, we brought back a 460 series G Wagen for my wife, and I think I’ll get the green light in a year to get one, so I’m doing the prep and learning specifics for when I get serious.
Threads like this just make me more and more excited to jump into the adventure. We already have too many cars (left 4 in storage in the States) and I feel like my former addiction to E30 BMWs, and current masochistic infatuation with Land Rover Discovery IIs were sufficient preambles to when I can fulfill this dream. In the mean time, I’ll live vicariously through this and other “build” threads as they teach me and I can make certain I get the most car with the least problems when taking my budget into account.
I’ve had a few air cooled cars on course and otherwise back in my auto crossing days, and the first car I ever went over 100mph in was my uncle’s ‘78 SC targa, so I kinda know what I’m getting into, but this being my first post here on Pelican (who I used for my E30s back in the day) makes me more excited to jump into things.
Best of luck with your machine and it will be fun to follow along.
