I spotted this car on the road, and my daughter asked why I thought it was cool. After I explained, she said, “Why would a company name a car 9/11?”

@siracusa spot on. I heard the latest @atpfm special and every time 911 was pronounced I could only “hear” September 11th.

Wonder if Porsche considered this post 9/11

@siracusa you habe to explain to your daughter that the world is bigger and older than the US of America.

@siracusa cause the 911 is older than 9/11.

@siracusa
Cause if you have too much fun with it and crash so hard you die, people will call 911 lol

MaybeMyMonkeys,

@siracusa why would parents name a child Jason or Karen?

@siracusa you could claim its november 9th because its always the year of inconsistent date formats

@siracusa

Hopefully soon the next time you all encounter a situation like that she instead asks, "How is any car cool if it has exhaust pipes?"

@siracusa
How many years would you have to hold off buying a car to rationalize the purchase of a Porsche in the future?

@freediverx A lot.

@siracusa fun fact: It was called Porsche 901 originally, but French car maker Peugeot objected to Porsche using any three digit number where the middle number was 0.
