Porsche - What it means

Porsche. I like the way it sounds. The 911 - a car that I have wanted since I was young. I am in the process of acquiring one. Not just any Porsche, a brand new 2007 997. I am not just walking into the dealer and picking one off of the lot. This car being built with the options and colors that I have selected. I often find myself searching for pictures of these cars and then studying or staring at the images. It is impossible to stare at the car too much.

I have been truly lucky in my life. I have pretty much had everything that I have ever desired. As lucky as I have already been, I really never thought I would ever have one of these at my disposal. The acquisition of this car will be (hopefully) one of the many highlights of my life.

I have been thinking of what it means to me to own one of these cars.

Firstly - these cars are sexy, curvy, powerful, graceful, agile, strong, beautiful, temperamental, and expensive. Today’s 911 looks like the 911 of yesterday, but still different. These cars are the same to the unaware, but to the enthusiast each are unique. I especially love the hips on the back - go figure, I am an ass man. But I concede - the car is beautiful from every angle.

These special cars, to me, are similar to special women. Special women are women who are strong, smart, independent and sexy. Acquiring one of these special cars is probably like acquiring a special woman. It is not easy; there are not many of them. I am lucky enough to have a special woman and I know that she is one in a million. She is irreplacable. I expect the same of this car. I don't know if I will ever be able to go back to a normal car after owning one of these.
