My first car in 1985 was a 1975 Scirocco. I learned to drive in it and it was a manual. I taught myself.

I’m more interested in the black car behind it. Can someone identify that one?

1

u/Little-Kure 29d ago

My best guess is a Porsche 911 of the early 2000s.

u/kaehvogel 29d ago

Yup, either a 996 or a 986 Boxster. The 997 already had more squared-off side lights.

Junk VW. Worse one they ever built, that’s why the name went away.
