It actually was for sale on Craigslist here locally. It is an impressive ride. I needed a Porsche I could put my 3 year old daughter in the back (btw I have already corrupted her to the fact that she wants a Green Porsche when she grows up.)

congrats. Love those wheels. Looks like you got some nice upgrades. Stock turbo?

There are a lot of 951/944 owners in Sac and the Bay Area so hopefully we can meet you on a fun run soon.
