First Porsche: 1988 944 Turbo S

Was hooked on Porsche's when: My Great Uncle had a 1969 911S, and my dad bought a 1984 911 Carrera. My Dad always told me the 944 Turbo was the best "bang for your buck" so I bought one as soon as I could afford a good example!

Hello fellow enthusiasts! Very happy to be here. Looking forward to posting and reading the many great posts here.

Here I am, saying hello to everybody.
I don't have a Porsche yet, but hopefully in another four or five months I will be driving my orange 911 Carrera.
Yes, I ordered it three weeks ago and now I just have to wait, and wait, and wait.

Welcome aboard nvbirdman! Will that be a lava orange 992? Are they saying the wait is 4 or 5 months now? When I ordered mine, they say 4 months, but it showed up in more like two and a half.

Yes, it's Lava Orange, and two and a half months would sure put a smile on my face.

Hey all - glad to be here. From Texas and currently awaiting my 718 GTS (super excited!). Thanks for establishing another fun Porsche forum!

Hey all,

My name is Dan and pleased to be here. I’ve owned a lot of sports cars: 4 Triumphs, 1 MGB, 3 Miatas, 2 BMW sports cars, 3 Fiat Spiders, and recently, 3 Porsches - 981, 991.2, 992. I have a B GTS 4.0 on order. I love the old sports cars and two of my favorite were the ‘63 Spitfire 4 and the MGB. I also had a TR6 restored that was sweet.

Anyway, I am super excited about this Boxster heading into production next week. I’m also glad to be here and enjoy reading what you all share.

BTW, my first near ownership was a yellow 356B years ago. I gave a down payment to a guy who was a senior in my college and he ran off to NJ with my hard earned money. He gave me bogus contact info. Next was a new black 924 but my then wife didn’t approve - something about kids blah blah blah. Lol. Anyway, I’ve been in sports car heaven since then and happy to be in this community.

Welcome nvbirdman - Lava Orange is a stellar color!

I was always told the anticipation is part of the fun..... But I find it frustrating... I hope your wait is nice and short!
