gotta love a 10 year old

After a rather detailed session of explaining the differences of the tt and gt2 to my 10 year old son [who is obviously quite pissed at this point because I don't have a gt2], he says

"But dad, if it was raining and we were in the "wigglies" you would at least have a chance, right?"

Twisties...wigglies...gotta love it. I think I found a new word!

Anybody else gotten a good chuckle out of their kids lately?

BSM- you have NO idea how right you are! I actually have twins, boy and a girl. We are in the car last night and an M5 comes roaring by and my DAUGHTER SAYS..

"Daddy, you going to let him do that to you? Why'd you even buy this car, huh?...C'mon dad, show us what it's made of...C'mon dad you scared?....What's wrong, can't you shut him down or what!!!!" Yeah, she's all of TEN YEARS OLD!!!!!

Gotta love the kids!

..and no I didn't chase the guy, the kids were in the car!

First time my 2.5 yr old son saw my red tts cab in garage he walked up to it spoon in hand and smaked it a good welcome home saying "I luv daddy's big red car". I just about fainted till I saw no damage to ft fender. His excitement though proved once again he's his fathers son. Gotta luv them!

When I got my car home, my 4 yr old son's smile was as big as I've ever seen. The first time I took him for a ride, when we got home he smiles a mischevious grin at me and says "Daddy, when we go for a ride from now on, can I ALWAYS go in this car?"

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree

My daughter says to me:

"But daddy why do you need 3 cars? You only have 2 legs!"

I just tell her:

"Because I Can LOL"

I took all 3 of my young daughters out for ice cream in my E55 about a month ago.

Driving back, some pimply faced kid in a Mustang GT (why is it always somebody in a Mustang who wants trouble???) starts playing with me....

revving it up, surging past me, slowing back down, giving me the eye, etc.

Through the grace of God, we both wound up side by side at the head of our lanes at a red light. I asked my girls if they wanted Daddy to spank the mustang and they started screaming yes.

So as I put it in sport mode and got prepared to ***** slap this kid, my 7 year old puts down the window and gleefully starts screaming at him "My Daddy is going to spank you, my Daddy is going to spank you!!!"

He gives me this puzzled WTF look as all three of my girls are pointing at him and laughing hysterically. The poor kid never knew what happened when the light turned green and I dropped the hammer.

Loved it until my girls told Mom the story - then I was in trouble!

$manager and wolfturbo - hysterical!!!

I was that kid once, begging my father to take me for a ride in his '75 911S "silver anniversary" edition. I was hooked early. Still has it, looks like this (not my pic)...



The Silver Anniversary 911 S was built to signify the 25th year of Porsche production. They were all metallic sliver on the outside, and had silver/blue fabric interiors. Each car had a plaque embossed on the dash bearing Ferry Porsche's signature. In total, 1500 of these cars were produced.

I just can't keep my kids out of the car (girl=3.5 and boy=2). Every time out in the garage, all they want to do is get in "Daddy's white car"....unfortunately w/o the airbag shut off I've never taken either one for a ride...Maybe this year. My daughter however now finds the car "too loud" and it scares her when I start it...so I'm hoping a ride will help that.

Great stories, I hope when I have kids that mine will grow up loving PORSCHES the way that I have grown up loving them. I use to ride in the back seat of my dads 85 911 which he still has till this day. Riding in the back of his PORSCHE is one of the main reasons why I bought my car. I would also like it when I have kids that they ride in the back of my PORSCHE for them to have fond memories and want to get a PORSCHE too!
