During my sophomore year in college, a roommate and I went to the Steamboat Springs antique car race and rally. It was amazing to see old 911s and 356s racing, and really racing, not just going kind of fast for fun. I took hundreds of pictures and put blow ups all over my house.
Since then, I've owned old jeeps and a bronco, to help appreciate simplicity.
I owned and old BMW air-head motorcycle to appreciate the torque and sound of opposed cylinders
I owned a newer Cadillac to appreciate overhead cams and the fact that heavy cars just don't corner well at all.
I owned a 1987 Mercedes convertible to learn that a car with style and power is nice.
Put all of those together in a beautiful and well engineered package and you get a 911.
