Default Sold the 944S today.

It's a sad day. After a relationship that lasted 5 years and one month, I had to say goodbye! If only I could hold on to a woman as long as that!!!

The weirdest thing happened though. 3 minutes after he started the test drive, the odometer broke! The numbers changed only from the left... i.e.

170800, 270800, 370800, 470800, etc... Was it a sign not to sell?

Oh well, it was fun while it lasted!

I have to say that's typical, something ALWAYS happens to the car when your letting a buyer drive it or about to let a dealer inspect it for trade in. Must be the car's way of saying "Noo I don't want a new home!"

964 with a 993 drivetrain (engine + transmission). Picking it up this monday! Can't wait. However, I'll always have a close bond with the 944 series... I'll ALWAYS wave.

The guy called me today and I'm a little bit pissed. When I let the car go, it ran superbe, the idle was perfect... Now he seem's to have problems with those things. At least I was as honest as I can possibly imagine telling him EVERYTHING about the car!

He complains about the oil pressure guage bouncing a lot when pressing in the clutch. What could be the problem?
