Here is another one to add to the collection. I guess this was one of those rare 944 S2 cabriolet turbos with the factory turbo-delete option!

also note the transmission, their weren't any factory S2 autos.

Don't know much about these as I'm quite happy with a n/a, but didn't I see "boost" mentioned a few times in there? Sounds turbo to me. What did I miss?

Perry 951

Fresh 8k "Grand Prix White" paint on it. For 8k, I'd hope they could at least get the color right.

Very interesting that this automatic has a "New clutch". Hmmmmm

RussRPJ-

The 951 Cabriolet (or 944 turbo convertible) was a euro only car and, while I'm sure there are 3 or 4 here in the states, they are considerably more expensive than $15k. Furthermore, there were no S2 autos (and thank God, not turbo autos). This is just a case of someone who has no idea what he is selling. The white should be Alpine White, he claims a new clutch in an auto. Just ridiculous!

Just gives you a warm fuzzy feeling that it's been properly maintained, doesn't it?

Like the nitwit that ran over to me at a gas station. Wanted me to see the six cylinder in his 944S he was so proud of. It turned out someone had replaced the 16 valve with an 8 valve n/a motor. He got confused looking at his distributor cap and thought he had a six cylinder.

The best part: He was a car salesman at the dealer next to the gas station.

I think I could draw better pictures then he took with a camera.

...and I don't even draw!

What a mouk.

According to the VIN it's a 3.0L, 1990 944S2 cabriolet, with dual airbags, built in Neckarsulm.

No turbo, and no automatic.

My car is Alpine white but the factory Fuch's are Grand Prix White. Go figure.

I believe the current white Porsche offers on new cars is called "Grand Prix White"

No idea if the shade is any different from Alpine White or not...

I have a 911 turbo booklet that my uncle got at a dealer and in the back there's a color chart, the only white is labeled "Carrara White", don't know if it's a typo or not. FWIW, the booklet is dated 2001 so new colors may be available since then.

Maybe Alpine/Grand Prix White is like Guards/(what ever the other one was called) Red, both reds had the same paint code and both were used for several years.

Was that before or after they put new torsion bars in the tranny? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
