I have an issue of Excellence from 1987 which features, among other things, an article on 924/944 handling modifications and test results from a skidpad

I also have 2 Porsche racing posters from the late 90's (they have 996 GT3 Cups on them, but I still think that they're pretty cool)

I would love some of those 944 turbo posters, any ideas where i could buy one from? Or perhaps someone wouldnt mind scanning their poster and selling me a copy?

Perhaps that is illeagal?

Surprised I haven't seen this posted yet: The 1983 944 plush toy
I got it from either the Automotion or Performance Products catalog, I forget which, in 1988.

Thats funny, I gave my dad a plush MB S500 back in the 80's for Christmas when I was a kid because he couldn't afford a real one at the time!

one of my broken steering wheels i took the hub and made a pencil holder out of it.

i will probably be making some furniture for my apt out of spare 944 bits, maybe a nightstand out of a spare center console

But this right here is my favorite. I need to get it hung though
Hung? Nah, just get a gasket and mount it to your header panel.


I have the poster of the red 944 head-on with a naked blonde woman on the hood. Found it on CL in a nice frame for $20! I also have a 924/944/968 book and one 968 book. I have a dark silver 951 die cast model that I thrashed as a child, but someday I'll restore it, in Zermatt Silver, like our '84.

I also have a black script seat office chair but that's not really a collectible.

Cool thread!
