Acouple of years ago my wife's good friend and her husband came through town to see us. He saw my 911 and my wife suggested I give him a ride. We drove around a little to get my engine warmed up then I "just happened" to be at one of my favorite on ramps. It is a tight S curve then opens up to I-35 and 70 MPH speed limit.
Pushing pretty hard through the corner and running through 1st 2nd and 3rd gear got his attention. He said he though we might roll over. I told him that was impossible, it would just slide.
My wife was chatting with her friend recently. The husband had bought a used Boxster over a year ago. Back in September he ordered a Boxster GT4 and it arrived last week. While they were waiting for that to come in they were at the dealer and bought a brand new Macan Turbo and a new Cayenne S that were on the lot. The had been driving Mercedes. Now they have three Porsches and just the two of them, no kids. I guess he liked the ride.
He is a ENT surgeon so his income per week is likely my annual salary or more.
