Hi, my name is Stephen Magown. I am 22 years old. I am a senior at Mississippi State University majoring in Business  Information Systems.  I graduated from Hattiesburg High School in Hattiesburg, MS in 1999.  I come from a family of gear heads, just about everyone in my family works in the automotive businesses. I have been in love with Porsches since I was hatched in 1980. My dad has owned 18 Porsches over the last 20 years, including 2 944 Turbos, a 930 Turbo, a true 1974 911 Iroc RSR, and 928 that had once been owned by Roy Orbison.

I had been riding in Porsches all my life, up to that point I just liked them for there looks and the way their name sounded. In 1995 my dad let me drive an '86 944 Turbo and I've been hooked ever since. Despite the fact that the 944 Turbo is  probably the one of the hardest cars in the world to maintain, I had to have one. After owning 3, I still want one more. I sold my silver 944T in December of 1999. Shortly after I purchased an '89 BMW E30 ///M3. It was a very fun car, the only problem with it, it wasn't a Porsche. So I sold it and bought my current project, a '79 911 SC. Since then I've jumped between a few more cars.  Thanks for viewing  my site, I hope you enjoy it.
