As far as I'm concerned an "old" Porsche has to be at LEAST older than me, and I associate the term with numbers like 356, 550, 904, 906. So maybe you need to tell her you have to get either a vintage Porsche or Rolex. Either one is a winner!

Here's a nice example owned by a good friend of my dad's:

So I guess that means that JJ will never have the opportunity to own a Porsche.

My relations with my cars and watches never turn out as badly as those with mistresses.

Go ahead and buy the Rolex.

If she questions it, tell her you're only thinking of the family and you want your children to inherit nice things.
