Perfect post!
I had a similar experience in 1988 - six month after I go my driving license, my mother gave me her 911 3.2 Carrera Targa for my first own drive in a 911.
I only had the permission to drive it to the car wash, but my way was direct on the autobahn.
What a feeling to se the first time in your life 245 Km/h as a driver - after 80 Km I washed the car and filled up the gas tank.
The goal was clear - I needed a 911.
Finally in 1994 I bought my first 911 a 1992 964 RS which I still own today.
Live your dream!
