[BigMan_99]

Being new to the whole Porsche thing, I have made a few observations regarding this.

I bought my dream car. I had to wait sixteen years to finally have the means to do it. I lusted after my 89 Speedster since the day Porsche decided to build it. In between I have owned many different cars and have many different car communities over the years but I have been most perplexed by this one.

First incident. Two days after driving it home, I pass a 993 Cab and wave as I go by. Look in the mirror and the fella is waving, big smile on his face. He obviously loves his aircooled ride and certainly appreciates mine.

Second incident. Come up to a red light next to a 996. Look over and smile at the guy. Very nice night but his windows are rolled up tight. He rolls the window down and says " What year is that?" I reply thats it's an 89 and that I just bought it. His reply? " Guess you couldn't afford a new one eh?" He then revs it up and takes off, almost hitting a guy turning into traffic.

Incident three. Older fellow comes to my door tonight and tries to sell me duct cleaning. I don't need any but he comments about my Porsche that he saw in my open garage. wants to have a two hour conversation about older Porsches and how much he admires them. With no prompting from me he tells me how every time he talks to owners of newer(996) machines they have no time for him, don't know much about their cars and are generally a s s h o l e s. Of course I don't agree but wheres theres smoke, there is usually fire I guess.
