2008 Turbo Cabriolet owner

It's winter 1971 in Athens, Greece. I am almost 4 years old. My grandfather and my mother take me to the city square the day before a race where various race cars are on parade in the streets. That's when I saw my first Porsche, it was a 917K in Gulf livery. I'm certain there were many other worthy cars that day but the 917 is the only one I remember, and it stole my heart. The sounds, the smells and that flat, low, wide car is forever burned into my memory.
Fast forward to 1977 I lay eyes on a 930, then in the 80's the 930S Flachbau! Holy Cow! My love affair with the 911 just keeps getting deeper.
When the 1989 930 5-speed was (dare I say) somewhat affordable, my wife and I were busy raising two sets of twins. Now they're all out of school,
Last month, I fulfilled a 55-year-old dream! I purchased a 2008 Turbo Cabriolet, midnight blue with natural brown interior with 30,870 miles. I'm really happy to be here.
I am the fourth owner of this car and my VIN is WP0CD29948S789204. I would love to connect with any of the previous owners of this beauty.
