1986 Porsche 944 Turbo 2.5 turbo from North America
Summary:
Born Race Car!
Faults:
I put mid-grade fuel in it (mistakenly) and it ran real bad... it started chugging, then dying, then backfiring... so a little word of advice DON'T use anything less than premium fuel, if you do put octane booster in and burn that tank asap.
Previous owner replaced taillights.
Leaky hatch.
Odometer is broken.
General Comments:
This car is fantastic.
It is quite fast, stylish, and really comfortable for a sports car. The turbo is a ton of fun especially once you get to about 1.5 bar. The car corners like nothing I have ever owned / driven. It rides very smooth as if it were a luxury car... the back seats, however, are a totally different story, they are pretty much pointless since no one over 4 feet tall can fit comfortably back there. The car runs like a champ and the turbo still pulls well at 117000 miles. The motor is pretty tight hardly any leaks. I would recommend this car to anyone with a sports car appeal. If you love getting all kinds of peoples attention this is the car for you as it turns basically everyones head. It's a Porsche what else can I say!
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
