I'm not entirely sure why I went to look at this car. It was on CL and the guy was asking $1,200. The body is in good shape with no damage but it was subjected to a bad color change and the interior is pretty nasty. I was walking away when I told the guy I didn't need ANOTHER project car but I'll give you $500 for it. I was shocked when he said OK. Now what??? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)

rust free you say ? Group: Members Posts: 16,375 Joined: 7-January 05 From: richmond, Va. Member No.: 3,419 Region Association: None |
just to be a d*ck (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) I wonder how many of the 944 detractors have ever actually OWNED one of them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
I know it's the cool thing to do, by dissing on the water cooled Porsche, and most everyone is well aware of the problem areas on them ( usually a issue of improper maintenance ) BUT how much have you dumped into your 914 fixing RUST ?? I have yet to have a rust issue on a 944. I have seen them rust under the battery but no where else. Oh and how much $$ have you spent fixing some hack mechanics work on ytour 914 ?? In the end it's another really good car when right, and yes the values are starting to climb ever so slightly. Why the hell do you think A.A. now has a catalog for the 944 owner ????????????? |
