PorscheCooled Owner Stories #75 -Tom ’02 996 Carrera 4S | EP182
In today’s PorscheCooled Podcast Michael presents episode 75 of owner stories with Tom from Vancouver, Canada. One of Toms earliest memories of Porsche is a plastic model of a G-Body 911 Targa on his dad’s dresser. Tom mentions that even though his dad was a ‘muscle and hot rod guy’ he was always into 911s. So much so that when Tom was around 8 years old his dad purchased a 1978 911 SC in silver. His dads 911 SC was a car that Tom recalls some great memories with.
Toms first car was not a Porsche but very cool just the same. It was a ’91 Toyota MR2, not a bad place to start your car journey. Having enjoyed the MR2, a ‘more sensible’ Honda Civic hatchback followed. A car that Tom went down the ‘JDM road’ with. So, when did the Porsche arrive? The Porsche for Tom (like a lot of us) happened later in life. One thing Tom did want was to give his two boys the Porsche experience that his dad gave him and his brother.
Tom wanted a reliable 911 that ‘he could turn the key and drive’. He started searching for 911s from the 996, 997 and 991 generations. After a long search and having passed up on a few, the right one eventually turned up. In August 2021, Tom found a 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S, silver, manual and with a black interior - this one was just right.
