Sounds simple enough. I don't see a problem with a membership. How long does it take for the entire process?

It isnt an issue of maintenance being up to date or not, so his ability to fix it is moot. The fact is, with 300k on the clock those rings and bores, not to mention the head is going to have a lot of mechanical wear no matter how well the belts, clutch, waterpump, ect were looked after. And please, nobody say "after 300k a 944 is just getting broken in" because no...porsche doesnt build magic engines now, and they sure didn't in the 80's. They wear like any other alusil engine..go ask a BMW owner how his motor is doing after 300k.

I'll also state again for the record that his uncle's car is NOT worth 4k. Half that would be much more realistic.

fantastic post. you win the thread.

still,

the cheapest way to go 150 k miles....

envelope please.....

that in bold is what the name of the thread should be.

you get to look through the trellis...

and end up at Camp Fema.


btw, you have to buy your uncle's 944 to find out how much of a jerk he is.

300 k miles. Jesus Christ.

tell him to sell that bag of bolts on Craigslist.

these ****boxes are bad enough at 60 k miles. now multiply that by 5.
