Good Points
Looks, performance and handling, reasonably economical to run and practical - ish.
It's a Porsche
Bad Points
Parts and labour.
A bit low to the ground for one of my age!
General Comments
I bought my '83 Porsche 944 Coupe, 2.5/8 valve instead of building a kit car, it was the right choice. Even though she's over 21, when I turn the key she never fails to start first time, every time.
Plenty of speed for the u.k.'s gatso infested roads and takes corners faster than I can!
Over-taking is a joy, point and press.
Can be a bit 'thumpy' at town speeds, but on the open road - yahoo!
Gets respect from other drivers and even drivers of new porsches give you recognition.
