See, the turbo conversion is SIMPLE! Only costs a couple of bucks, too. Funny looking automatic shifter, tho.

since it is a clone of a the infamous factory turbo s it must be worth mega bucks. having the only "automatic stick shift" is proof that a 944 is really a VW in disguise, and makes that car worth even more nigerian dollars.

I bet it has drum brakes all around for superior stopping power.

I hope for the owners sake that the holes in the bumper were for some sort of stripper pole platform.

Then this car would be gangster.

Holy crap, it still has that hose from the airbox to the belt covers. Haven't seen one of those in a while.

Also, I thought 85.5 didn't have an MPG gauge. Am I wrong?

I don't know about all of them (whether it was an option or standard), but mine does.
