Default My First Porsche - 944S w/ mandatory PICS!!!

I finally got my first 944 recently which is also my first Porsche and certainly will not be the last. Here are some pics after a mild clean up with some 993 turbo twists!






Will definitely need some lowering springs up front. But one thing at a time. Already did all the belts & rollers, waterpump, and also the camchain tensioner and chain itself.

Jeez; didn't waste any time.

My car looks like crap.

So did you remove the door mouldings or did you buy it like that?

I bought it like that. Actually, I didn't notice it until you just mentioned it. I knew something looked different, but couldn't pinpoint it. Thanks!

now i might have to factor a set of those wheels into my budget. They look fantastic. Wonder if they would look as good on a black 924S.

very nice looking car

Im not really a fan of colored wheels but the black/black with the polished lip really adds flavor

Very nice looking S you have, congrats on the purchase. Is that your farenheit GTI in the background? Sweet color on that car.

Welcome to the "S" club. More elite than any of the other 944's.
Car looks GREAT. Someone took pretty good care of it. How many miles?

BTW.. finding the side molding with "16 Ventilar" on it is a real PITA. Took me quite a while but I finally got it.
