Default age of the 993tt owners?

i can remeber 10 years ago i was in 11th grade in high school when my buddies dad bought a 993tt, one of the first in miami at that. I remeber after hanging at his hosue and seeing it that someday i would have one for myself. He ended up selling it in 98 for 2k more than what he bought it for, not a bad investment. Now 10 years later i am 26 and own mthe coveted 993tt. My question is is anyone else on this forum in their twenties, or am i the yopungest one at 26? I'd like to know the ages of my fellow rennlisters.

All the best

Sebastian

Started with my 993 cab at 19. Now at 30th bought the TT. A few others in between (shhhh, a 996 C4 cab). Got smart and came back to the oilers.

i m a big fan of the oilers moreso than the waterers although the 997tt looks quite appetizing

I got Waldo about 4 years ago, and I just this year turned 40. But be careful... I do my age in Hexadecimal arithmetic. Go figure (literally)..

I think I hold that dubious distinction. 40 in base 16 arithmetic.

I bought mine 3 years ago at 33. By the way, what color was that 993TT in Miami that your friend's dad owned. My car was a Miami car for the first few years.

I am 44, to be 45 in November but my tt is gone (June) so I no longer qualify. I do hope to re-appear at some point and will be glad to accept the award as oldest bastage.

You guys aren't nerdy enough to get my arithmetic. 40 hexadecimal = 64 in decimal. Ok? Cripes. Now you can see why I really am an old fartus emeritus.
