New member here out of Central Florida. Lifelong Porsche fan. Loving the site.
Trapped in the 1980’s.

1986 Porsche 911 Targa
1988 Porsche 944
1989 Porsche 930 Factory Slant Nose
1991 Porsche 928 S4
2023 Porsche 992.1 GTS

That's quite the collection of great-looking Porsches! Nice space for them to live in too.

Trapped in the 80s - the music and the movies with their uniquely identifiable soundtracks quickly come to mind. Nostalgia indeed!

Welcome to Carpokes!

Nice group of Porsches and noticing the Roush Banner I assume you may have owned a Mustang or two over the years. I no longer have one, but I will admit to also being a fan of the Blue Oval Pony having tracked quite a few of them. I agree with blueline, nice wide and deep garage --- I am envious, ha!

Thanks guys! Had a Roush F350 Super Duty thing was a beast. Very smooth ride. Roush Mustang is on the bucket list. Still have one blue oval in the lineup. 1935 Model 51.

Even my audio is old school

Wow, love the 35 Ford , but you need to extend the bed a bit more so you could carry one of the Porsches, haha!

@Porsche 505
I agree that is an impressive group of vehicles. The 35 Ford looks very interesting, quite a night and day difference between the F350 and the 35!
Is that a 968 in the corner of your garage picture?
Thank you for sharing the pictures of the "family", and nothing wrong being stuck in the 80's!

@JamesL
Welcome!
I think you will find the Macan group helpful and supportive in your quest for answers and appreciative of your posts.
What brought you into the Porsche fold, and what other types of vehicles have you owned? Are you considering other Porsche models?
Thank you for joining!

Thanks!
I feel for those drivers that had to run these 1930’s trucks up and down the road. Truck is really interesting. Has only one fuse for entire truck. Still 6v positive ground.


It’s a 1991 928 S4. Amazon Green!
