For what it's worth my 87 944S build date was 11/86 and that could be the source of some confusion. Of course it has an 87 VIN.

 

did the 944 go up on the block yet?
You guys should send in Emails about it so we get some info/exposure from the anouncers. I sent my email about it in already.

**** .. I forgot to watch .. hopefully it's still on, thank god for timezones
oh, I remember what really amazed me yesterday - that 5 mile harley one off that went for $11k! If I were there I would have outbid that, and I don't even ride

 

I didn't see it on the block at all??? Oh well... I should have taken mine... would have gotten rid of it alot quicker than at the current pace...

 

I had to work late and missed it. What did it end up selling for?

 

I was at the auction today and saw the 944. It had already been sold and was locked up, so I couldn't look at the engine and only saw the interior through the windows. But what I did see was:

Dinged up phone dials
Ripped seats
Mangled center console
Missing ***** and interior pieces
115K miles
Macco paint job
Missing rubber under the rear wing
Blackened exhaust pipe

Overall, this was a poor example of a 944.

 

Wow Jamie, you're lucky to be there!
That's interesting to know that it was a POS...it's funny, the description blurb said it was a good example of a 944...
Did it say how much it went for in the end? Who got suckered into buying it?

 

wasn't even a 944S, i tell ya!!!

 

it sold for $4644.00

 

$4,644!? Must be a happy seller!

 

If that scrap heap sold for $4,644 then I'm taking mine next year. If it doesn't sell for $10K, I'll be amazed.

 

I got a 190 photos from being their today. JaimeJim.. coulda met you there!

True "S" cars do draw alot of money, there is was sold down here in south florida at one of the high line dealers and I played the game with them for about 10 days. They started off at no less than $27,000.00 after I got them down to $25,000.00, went back 2 days latter and sold for $25,700.00. This car was perfect with 9,700 miles true "S". these car are truley desireable to the rich or a guy who likes to spend his money on a real masterpiece.

 

?????huh??? Did they even sell for that new? A 944S not Turbo S.
