Passion for 993's

I had a black 993 cross me at a stoplight, i think it as a turbo with the whaletail spolier.....all I can say is WOW, they are showstoppers!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My passion for Porsche started when I got into my friends father's 1987 turbo cab back when I was like 10 yrs old and has only grown since!!!!

how about some stories on how you guys got bitten by the bug?

Luis- Those pix are great! We are about the same age and I have some very similar photo's laying around, but mine were of the 914 my dad had that had a custom made seat in the middle (which would NEVER be allowed now) for me.
Funny how once the P-car bug gets in to your system there is no cure. My dad has owned a Porsche of somekind all my life. At 20 I bought his 944 off of him, now have a 993 had will own a p-car of some kind for the rest of my life. God willing!

Cool pictures there Luis. You're parents are a attractive couple too. What about that single girl in the second picture, is she still single? What about the cars, they still around? How old were you then too?

Thanks, Those pics were taken 27 & 29 years ago. On the top one I was about a year and a half and the bottom one I was about 3. Both cars have been sold but he has always had at least 1 Porsche in the garage. Here is a pic of his current 02 GT2.

He just signed up here on 6speed (Luis02GT2) and has posted other pics of his cars in a different thread.
