I think if he would have spent as much time/money/effort into a turbo, he may get 18K. The interior in my opinion is fugly, as well as the front and the color, but that's a matter of taste.

Damn, personally i think this angle looks awesome! The color could work...and i dig the RS panels on the doors. I also really like the wheels. Ive always loved black wheels with body color lips. Honestly, i can't imagine someone paying 18k for this car though. Unless someone really wants to? There is a butt for every seat. Then again, you can get a virtually mint 944 for about $18,000 if you can find one.

Nice rear! Something different, but it works.

That's how those valences always look, they're junky and non functioanl. THAT piece was certainly never on a race car, it's a big umbrella.

The holes in the bumper remind me of the Simpsons when Homer is taking a pick to his car. Flanders askes what he's doing Homer replies with something to the effect of. "putting aerodynamic holes in my car. To make it go faster"

I will take the wheels, tires, and brakes. I will offer him $800. The rest is scrap.

I've seen worse. The paint is pretty good on it which makes it appealing to me. Stock bumpers NEED to be put on CORRECTLY without a hole saw though.

My .02 cents

HAHAHA he can claim those holes as heritage and probably get away with it! Ever seen the old swiss-cheesed 550s, and other modified racers??? They put holes any where they could!

Hey, someone said we were being "nasty". That's not very nice - just because being honest might be borderline nasty isn't our fault.

"Bump for a good seller & beautiful car.
Car is well-worth the $$, Speak from experience"

The fact that anyone believes the 944 NA is worth anything near $18k is an attestation to how well the 944 has aged.

Or it could be proof how crazy Canadians are.

P.S. Shockingly the Canadain dollar is worth something! 18K Canadian > 14,892.03 Dollars.
