Yeah. I like 944's. I used to think they were por mans porsche, but I've grown out of that now. They are great cars, fast, and tunable too. They have a great retro lok about them. 911.. a poor mans Carrera GT...

Man, some of those 80's 911's look like piles of feces. I hate that poor mans crap too. A coworker has a 328 Ferrari and he gets scoffed at by "real" Ferrari owners. Even though his car is 20 years old, it still gives me a boner when it winds up.

The 'real' ferrari owners are obviously more interested in their little dick extensions, than the cars themselves. I'd love an old 328, or a Dino! Hell.. I;d love to own a Toyota GT2000

Nice cars

Dino


Toyota GT2000


328


All of them feckin horny cars!!

It was built to compete against the E-type jag. Was half the price at the time. One of my many dream cars! It was featured in a bond film, can't remember which one, except it was a conv, and white in the film. Great car! It can be found on Project Gotham racing in the garage bit somewhere...



Some people are not keen on the front. Its a case of love it or hate it. I love it!

There ya go... Never popular, like the GT2000 because it wasn't an Aston martin, or a ferrari badge on the front. Samea s the VX220... Stopping, or stopped production because its an opel, and no-one is buying them. its an elise for gods sake, just cheaper!!




Really apologise for the complete tangent this thread is taking!! [:-][:-]

i have nothing against the 944 turbo, the 2 lesser 944's suck though, and i would take a 928 in a drop of a hat. Funny thing about the 944's though, the corrado was designed to be the 944 killer but there was always that turbo model that couldnt be touched by any competitors. Hey have you guys heard of the new cayman s thats coming out soon. Its like a hardtop boxter but will be the best handling porsche ever made, if i understood the C&D article correctly during my afternoon dump. but take a look at ebay there are cheap porsches everywhere.
