The joy of owning an imperfect Porsche 911

PCA—I’ve owned three 1999 996 coupes. The one I currently own has over 215,000 miles on it and has more stories than the Brothers Grimm, and there’s both joy and occasional pain in owning a 911 that is never going to be anyone’s heirloom.

Photo by Gary Cooper. Northeast Region. "Here's a shot of my 2.7-liter 2003 986 Boxster, captured after driving down to Newport, Rhode Island, for the 2021 Halloween Day 'Trunk or Treat' event put on by the Audrain Auto Museum. Afterwards, I took a cruise along the famous Ocean Avenue, stopping to snap this photo. I love the little roadster, which I purchased from Pedro Bonilla of PCA Tech Committee fame, and drive it often. It just passed 165,000 miles. Drive, rinse, repeat!"
