I am a lucky SOB!

I have been casually shopping for a 911 for awhile and out of the blue found a local model that was just what I was looking for.

It's a one owner, unmolested 88 Carrera 3.2 Coup, with 79k miles, fully documented and has been serviced since new by the most respected P-shop in my area. In fact, the shop owner called and told me about the car.

At first I hesitated because I haven't been looking very seriously. But then I came to my senses and moved on it.

Very nice. Is that one of those 914 kit cars? It almost looks like a tail dragger.

To tell the truth, I'm somewhat in a state of shock.

Kinda like this...

You are now driving my dream car. Since I was a little kid and my neighbor had one. Send more pictures !!! The first one you sent is going to be my new screen saver. I hope you got a good deal. If you ever think about selling that beauty email me.

Thanks for all the positive comments!


Well, except for that wise crack about my shoes.
I'm usually wearin' doc martins or vans. I thought the sandals were "stylin"...


I suddenly seem to have so MANY errands to run.


Anybody wanna go anywhere?

I thought the white socks gave me a nice Ol'Guy look.

Damn nice car Joe!

You picked the best Porsche had to offer before the 964's and 993's.

To this day Porsche still uses a version of the G50 tranny in their race cars as well as a updated version of the 3.2/3.6 engine case.
