In 1983 I was 33 yrs old, single and looking for a sports car, initially a Corvette. I had an uncle who owned a very large Chevrolet dealership and at the age of 18 wanted a 396 Chevelle. He wouldn't sell one to me because he thought I would kill myself but at the age of 33, I get I was past being stupid. He talked me out of the Corvette and suggested s Porsche or BMW. So, I began a quest looking at cars. My budget put me in the range of a 3 series and a 944. In 83, the 944 was a very tuff car to find, there was waiting list just to take a test drive.
I settled on the 944. I bought it thru my uncle as the 944s were getting over sticker with a 4 month wait. Still have the car. In hindsight I should have pushed my budget for a 911. Car was paid off in 2 years and got married in a year after that. Life gets in the way and so did car opportunities.
