i'm gonna buy it...
my friend's 944. he wants to sell it to me for $1700. needs some work, but runs great. he bought it because it looked like my old 88 na. i sold it several years ago to finish school. now i'm done and about to have a house, my wife said i could buy it after the house is done.
there's only a few problems:
1. its an automatic.
2. it has some body damage, it was bought from an insurance auction by the previous owner, who i know as well.
3. i have another friend who is selling an excellent condition 944s.

the s is too perfect. maybe i'll get both and part out the 85.5. i'm looking for a car i can take apart and rebuild. i figured the price is worth it whether i get the s or not. i could always part it out.
i'm going to use it as a daily until i finish my gti, then i'll strip it down and make a racecar out of it. my goal is an extremely light weight car that is still street legal.
the s is really nice though. but i'll have to pay more for it. it has a new paint job and new head/belts/etc. and everything works including air conditioning. it'd be a shame to take it apart. although an s motor would be fun to play with in a light weight 44.
decisions, decisions......

yeah, i'm not too excited about the auto. i've already driven it and its not like my old 5 spd. it'll be ok when i'm using it as a daily (i drive in a lot of traffic), but it'll be gone when i start stripping the car down. i plan on taking it apart all the way to bare chassis.
here's my inspiration, i'd like to duplicate this with a 944:
