Actually, I completely forgot about this one:

Subaru BRZ - lightweight (for today's standards), RWD, 200 hp n/a four, what's not to love? I know I'm seriously considering one for a daily when they come out.


Just a render, but the concept car images being released now looks similar (I *hope* it looks similar to this, however)

I believe the first pic in this post is absolutely HOT!!!

My first thought before reading the other responses was that it would like a Cayman.

But I do agree, that in reality, that the 2012 Hyundia is what a 2012 Porsche 944 would look like on the outsie. There is probably a more realible engine IN the car.

I'd take a Genesis Coupe as my daily in a heartbeat. It'd have to have the V6, though. After 5 years, I'm sick of a turbo-4 as my daily.

A new Hyundai will only be more reliable because it's new. I've seen the inside of the Genesis engine, the 944 motor is a much better unit.

I like the new Genesis a lot, it's a great car especially for the price.

but i bet it doesn't have a timing belt problem :P haha jk

That Hyundai and the Subaru look like they came out of a jelly mould used to produced many similar cars I see on the road. You can't say that about the 944.

Obviously if you just take it at face value, yeah they look nothing alike - But you have to remember what the cars around the 924/944 in the 70's and 80's. It's an apt comparison.

Well to each is own,but will like it to look like this with either a 350 hp V6/V8 under the hood.

Just like it looks now.
What a timeless classic!

Mine's on loan. Rough but ready. Parked outside an independent German repair shop, just to give ambiance and draw in older wannabe customers driving 5 year old MB and Audi.

jeeze who needs a G-35? that car is nice.



my friend has like 220 k miles on his wrx. now on it's second turbine.

don't know about the hyundai but the v6 manual w/ the 6 speed looks pretty damn good for $28 k.

I see a lot of 944 in this Aston Martin Vantage. I think they follow the same lines.

I agree with the Hyundai statement. Hell, lots of guys here have bought then once they get tired of keeping a 27 yo car on the road.

I think the one thing that set all the front engine cars apart was the bubble rear glass, that rear glass really set us apart, who knows with all the retro **** on the road today they might come back with a 944 retro car, I for 1 would take a real close look, I like this one

i agree with this, close lines. it would be even closer if the aston had a full glass hatch or wrapped the glass around the rear a little more and then gave the car a more distinct "hour-glass" shape. i love seeing the 944's hips in the side mirrors
