Hi , I have to confess I am a Porsche nut, can't get enough of them, I have it bad, it's an incurable disease, you have to have your fix. Dr Porsches pill ! This slogan was used in the 70's / 80's on Porsche adverts how true.
Personally I like the earlier cars, I did not believe they were as good as written about, drive one and you will see, its heaven on earth. They are light, twichy,fantastic feel thru the wheel, puts a smile on my face everytime I drive one.
The noise, bark from the short stroke engines, smell of oil and fuel is magic, starting the engine is an occasion as it jumps to life, like a terrier !
I have an understanding wife who allows this disease to get worse.

64 356C coupe red
66 230SL Pagoda
