I just went to a long interview at future shop and got the job (only temporary right now). anyways the boss asks me " so what do you drive?" and I say " an 85 porsche 944" and then he's like " so you mean a vw?" he was just joking around but it kind of pissed me off haha.
I was nervous at the interview so I didn't feel like correcting hime so I was like yeah I didn't buyt it for the mark I just like the car and he says " i know they are fun".
I'm guessing he was thinking 924.... or maybe he's one of those guys that thinks anything other than a 911 is a VW.
My dad is like that, he even told me once that the boxster was really a vw.....

yeah I just let it go, I thought why tell him he's wrong it doesn't really matter to me.
one of the supervisors at my other job asked what I drive also and I said a 944 and he was like yeah those are pieces of crap..... I was like yeah pieces of crap...... he drives a grand am gt.
at least this guy wasn't rude and was just joking around.

I'd rather buy a car associated with VW - who invented (with Audi) the best AWD system ever and invented the pocket rocket catagory with the GTI than sharing a badge with a Cavalier.
I love VW's just as much as my Porsche's. So saying a 944 is a VW is something to be proud of.

yeah it's just ignorant people. That's totally true , you might aswell call the 911 the suped up vw beetle.
After I sold me 924 with the vw motor I was actually thinking of buying a mk2 16v gti or a vw corrado but then I ended up buying a 944 because I love the look of the car plus it's rear wheel drive unlike vws.
when you drive a "cheap" porsche a lot of people will want to bash it, usually people who just see porsche as some status symbol for rich people.

I hate how people say that like theyre trying to talk down on you because you own a Porsche. Cmon? Thats the best insult you can think of toward Porsche? Ive heard way dumber, like "Id never own a Porsche because theyre interference engines!" said the Fat high school dropout at Goldstar Chili with a ford Tempo with a spraypainted interior.
"I dont own a Porsche, but everybody else that does really just has a VW!!!!".
I gurantee if that lardass got a Porsche, hed wanna trout-smack anybody that called it a Veedub.

Agreed, people try to bash mine...then I just rev her up a bit and EVERYONE shuts up....its great. These cars have history and heritage which is something that their pos's will never posses. The 944/951 evolution from the design of the 928 was an extremely successful motor in racing, look up the stats of the 944 GTR in '86. Whatever its history its a bad *** car, it was proven on the track then approved for the street by the Porsche "gods"

people like that wouldn't care if it's fast , they'd be like " yeah that's a pretty cool vw turbo"
if I get another porsche it will probably be a 951 or 928 but I'm a poor student so I can barely afford a 944 na.
