I'd be surprised if most of us aren't in the upper 30s to low 50s...

My son, Ramses III ( yes, the actual pharaoh, not just a namesake.. ) also drives a 968, but that may skew the survey a bit in favor of you youngsters..so I only entered my age in there .. As for my other son, Caligula , well ..he has a Prius so it does not count.



56 , this month as a matter of fact..

I turned 50 last March..bought the 968 as a 38th birthday present for myself. Porsche ownership was on my "before 40" bucket list.

Well, Im 34..35 in a week. So I just put 35. I do get the feeling Im one of the youngest here. My first car was a NA 944. I was 25. Ive owned nothing but 944's, or 968 my entire life. With the exception of my range rover to utilitarian stuff.

Bought my 968 when I was 29...I just turned 40 in June. My first Porsche was a 85.5 944 when I was 22 that always over heated. I still find myself looking at the temp every second in the 968.

No octagenarians yet, but they may just be too slow to have responded yet. <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/biggrin.png" class="smilie" alt="" />
