Default New Addition - 924S

I bought my first Porsche a couple of years ago. 1988 Targa. Last week I picked up a 1988 924S. I must say, while it does not have the power my 911 does, it's plenty peppy as a daily commuter and great mileage too.

I remember seeing this car in high school and thought it looked great. I feel the same today. Great cars!

Nice car and combo! I'd like to see some pictures of the interior.

I see you are from Washington, that’s where my car came from. They are fun cars, hope you enjoy it in good health!

The person I bought it from has taken very good care of it 13K in maintenance reciepts (and other work) since he bought it in 1996 and that does not include another 5K on paint. The car is stock with the exception of a cat back exhuast and chip. I will probably leave it that way, although I will put some tunes in it. I am a bit of an audiophile and tend to go overboard when it comes to stereo equipment. This is turning out to be a great daily driver. As requested here are a couple more pics of the interior along with my other car (1988 Targa). Thanks for the comments!

nice - car looks great, especially the interior

it looks like the PO removed the center console carpet trim at some point, and I must say that I like the way that it looks a lot

Very clean and nice looking car. I like the 924s and early 944s b/c they were light and agile - not a lot of power but very fun and pure to drive.
