As a little boy, 60 years ago, I daily visited the PORSCHE automobile shop in our neighborhood, begged for some posters, even took place on the leather seats – and was quite sure, that once I would own a PORSCHE. Now, aged nearly 70, I realize: it will never be. The Porsches grew old like me it seems…

Perhaps, but the music they make is not anywhere as sweet as yours! You are in good company though as I am still waiting for a sports car promised over forty years ago…

my reply:
thanks for your kind words about my guitar hobby, maybe you like my cover MERCEDES BENZ = my tribute to Janis Joplin and my LORD (I’m still waiting for an answer; Janis Joplin, on the other hand, drove a PORSCHE painted in a psychedelic manner, we don’t know what she’s riding up above in heaven now)
P.S.:
even my daughter supported my prayer in a church:
I am sure you have weathered far better than this poor old Porsche Frizz!

As a young doctor i had a red 356 porsche coupe. In this time there was no speed limit on the street and i was allways fast. This porsche was difficult to drive because he had no assists like ABS or ASL and the back was allways on the way to be before the front. Another car damaged my porsche but I had a good luck and stayed alive without a läsion.
In this time I married and a porsche was to fast for my wife.
But in my dreams sometime this feeling of speed comes back.

For me, it’s a MGB GT that made me dream….and Lotus. And like you, I think I will never had one but can maybe drive a lotus one day on a racing circuit.
That poor 356 deserve better than to live under those trees. And when you think that it was initially a sport version of the beetle of the same Engineer, …..
I just drove a Porsche today….in Real Racing 3 on my phone 😀
