I've seen several S2 Cabs. Came across a guy in an S2 coupe a few months ago on the interstate and we got off at the same exit and went to the same place (Wal-Mart). I caught up to him there and we chatted cars for a bit. He'd gotten the car from his brother IIRC. Mentioned Rennlist to him, don't think I've seen him on here yet though.... Lives about 90 minutes from me.

First time I ever saw a 944 cabriolet was in 1992 in Barcelona, Spain, parked outside a townhome in the uptown. It was a black metallic S2 cab and I almost crashed my scooter from goosenecking to look at it.

I still drive up that same street occasionally in the 951 or S2 cabs and relive the impression that car made on me, only now as a driver.

Dustin did I see yours on the 11th of March on Colorado beteen 8th and 9th street? If so, very nice car! There is also a white 968 cab that often parks on Lavaca near 14th, it has a torn rear window, though.

There is a black one here with the rear window (plastic) cracked. But everything else is in mint condition.

Also as far as S2's go there are more Coupe's then Cabs...
In 90 more cabs sold then coupes but thats the only year.

Bought some seats off Ebay from a guy in Ft. Lauderdale who was parting out his crashed 944, he replaced it with a black S2 cab. Sweet car.

We test drove one one day at that place in Winter Park.... that overpriced independent Porsche shop/dealership? The name escapes me. Oh well.

Hey joe,

Let's see, Iv'e seen yours and mine. j/k Iv'e seen 3 others around town but only one that I see daily. I don't know who it belongs to but its always parked out front at Sportsplex on 280. Last week though, I saw the sweetest Turbo S in silver rose(I guess it was a 951S it didn't have any badges but it had D90's and the silver rose was unmistakeable) parked at the Collonade. I didn't get out to look at it but I did drive by it a couple of times cause it looked sooo nice.
