Please, if you are a 'dealer', you have an unfair advantage, so, please remain an observer, only.
I'll start off the thread:'

35 Porsches , so far. From 1970 to the present. Several times I had as many as 4 at once. NOW, to insure domestic bliss, I have limited it to having only two. BUT, after the new garage is built, I think I can lobby for a 3rd....???? We'll see.
How many have YOU had ????
Saw my 1st Porsche, in 1962, at age 11, whilst riding with Dad in his VW, in Tucson, AZ.
Love at 1st sight.... :shifty: Now, 35 Porsches later.....what can I say.

@Darkbeer

An FYI that I deleted the duplicate of this thread you started.

Regarding your poll, I'll just watch from the sidelines. I'm curious now. :D

I'm on my second. Both Boxsters. My wife's Cayenne is at the port in Germany right now, not sure if that counts.

I have only owned two Porsches ( Cayman GTS and Macan S ) which I currently have in the garage. I have owned over 125 cars over the years, but I am no longer selling these 4 wheel objects of desire, so I have slowed down a bit. Likely for the next Porsche I will follow Stormy's lead since my wife would really like a Cayenne. Even though there are just two of us for some reason she thinks we need a bigger vehicle. Since she never complains when I buy new wheels , race tires, or parts, I figure I will use the wisdom Stormy is so eloquently illustrating!

....and DarkBeer , Prost to you on your Prolific Porsche Parade!

That is an impressive number!...I have not had 35 of anything. Not watches, dogs, any specific brand of car. Maybe 10 BMW M cars and that's about it.
