Daughters first ride

I just bought my first p-car, a 01 C2 with 13000 miles. My 3 year old daughter loves cars and going fast so she was excited to see daddys new car instead of my work truck.

After a week i found child seats that will fit into the car and took her for a ride. What i did not know is that the family was getting sick and she was the first. YES in less than 8 miles she lost her lunch inside the car. As a good dad i flew home and let mommy clean up the little girl while i cleaned the car

Just thought i would share

When I saw the title to the thread, I was expecting a story that would make me eager for my daughter to get big enough to ride in the Porsche. Now... not so much...

My seven year old daughter loves the car more than we do. She yells "speed boost!" from the back seat and we're only too happy to oblige!

Many times when I pick up my 3 year old from daycare, she doesn't want to leave. When I tell her I have the "yellow car", she replies... let's go daddy! I want to ride in the fun car! She reminds me not to put the top down right now though (it's about 30 degrees in KC). LOL

Nice story, hope you were able to clean her up (the car, oh, and the kid too).

My 1 yr old son LOVES to play in the car. He plays in it just about every day. When I get home I'm excited to see him and he runs right by me to jump in the 997. Here's a pic.

That's a good one. I picked up my 20 month old son from daycare one day because my wife was working late and had the Audi. He sat in the car seat in the back of the 996 very excited and smiling the whole way home! Now when we all go down to the garage in the morning to go to work, he points at the Porsche and says 'car!' and has no desire to ride in the Audi anymore! He is actually crying when i put him in the car seat in the A4. Hilarity.

Once you go Porsche you can never go back.

My daughter loves playing in my racing kart when i am working on it, except when i start it. Some of her biggiest smiles is playing like she is driving. Only a year or two and she can start racing

Ahhhh, nothing like the smell of puke you can't find on a warm day. One of my twins used to get carsick all the time. I had to trade the thing in in the winter when the faint smell of it wasn't still there.

Nothing but black leather for me!

Our almost 3-year old daughter loves to ride in the Porsche and has never gotten car sick. In fact, she gets all excited whenever I get on the gas pedal. She often insists on taking the Porsche before trips. Here's the Porsche Zoom booster seat that we use.
