Wait a min, let me get this straight.....
I went to the Porsche webstie. You know killing time at work. And I go to the section of "classic models". Where is the 944 and 968??? What's wrong here? Am I not looking at the right section or does Porsche not acknowledge the 944s and 968s??

It's a little known fact that if Porsche had a magic wand they would make every front engine Porsche disappear.
My mechanic was trying to get a very generic part for his 928. He knew it was the same on the GTS so he called the dealer, said it was for a 1995 GTS (since they usually are not to helpful with older 928's) they said it was on back order until 2006. This was a plastic clip (easily broken) that keeps the headlights from wobbling around. On a 9 year old car, they cannot even supply parts for it anymore. Two main fuel lines are no longer available, I cold write a book on 928 parts they have dropped. Not available aftermarket either.
Porsche also no longer takes back ANY returns on parts. You got the wrong part? F*ck you, where's our money.
Porsche doesn't give a sh*t about their customers anymore. The RMS issue is a good example.

Other models used to support the profit margin when no one wanted to buy the 911 in a weak economy.
You choose.

Makes no sense why they would list the 924 as a classic and not the 944.
That also really sucks that they no longer make certain parts of the 928s I REALLY want one of those but have been warned how expensive they are to fix if certain things go wrong. Now I understand why. However, I will still eventually get one

Geez - maybe it is just because 944s are not old enough! The oldest ones are barely 22 years old. They DO have the 924...

Really, no need to have an inferiority complex over it!
Also, it sounds like some of you have been to some lousy dealerships. I've only dealt with three dealerships, and two were lousy and one was good.
Cheers,

I know they have the 924 listed, I mentioned that.
Who has an inferiroty complex? I was just wondering why it was not listed and did not make any sense why those two models were not listed.
