No it is there. On page 1 on your thread here - you just beat me too it. The white one.

Of course I prefer this ...........

For $XX,000 and some change MAYBE I will sell you one of the best ones there is. I cant do it really - but here a quick pic.

It is at about 95% right now. That last 5% is hard to get and keep done. Most everything in this one is new or redone with about 95% Porsche OEM parts. You really dont sell these though.

I would have to try to hunt some up. The actual factory color for mine as shown is Lt Grey . I put up my original delivery codes sheet and the color codes once but I think it is gone or buried somewhere . The only thing different when it was delivered in September of 1985 was the matching floor mats in Lt Gray. Those in the original Porsche mats have been un-available for a long while, so my new ones here are in black. While I prefer the Lt gray ,and aftermarket ones were available in a close color, I wanted the Porsche units to keep with the overall nature of the car. One thing is the black stays a bit better when you actually use it . But that is OT.

Default 930

See what I mean on the 930's. But I still have to keep my 951 too. Another garage addition to my house costs more than both the cars.

http://chicago.craigslist.org/nch/cto/2815012857.html what do you guys think about this one? I'd probably offer like 6-7k.

http://dcauto.gotdns.com/illustration/index/875231029 << still thinking about that. Would transplanting everything from my old car to a new chassis be diy'able?? If I do go this route I'd make sure to do it right; sandblast/repaint everything.

Buy the best car you can afford and make sure it makes full boost. My car I bought sight unseen. My dad didn't really get it on it enough to discover the car wasn't making full boost among a few other issues. 2 years later and I am still sorting things out. Best advice try and get as much as you can done before you start driving it. I just recently had my top end rebuilt, since I was getting the front end service done and that was a hefty bill. The 951 is an awesome car. Mine is more of a driver, but I like driving it over anything else I have driven.

If you buy a project tackle stuff one system at a time. Instead of bandaid fixes here and there. With these cars being so old now it just makes sense to do that.

Just watching - Remember boost is your friend, once your on it -n/a will not do anymore. I've had about 4 944/951 and this one is the best ever. Buy the most sorted/clean/documented car you can. The money you save on a possibly mistreated car will eventually be put into the car after you figure out where it goes. Chicago is pretty close to St. Louis.

I am selling a 1986 Porsche 944 Turbo. Has just over 75k miles on the odometer. This is one of the nicest 944 Turbos on the market. This car has the very rear 220 code 5R limited slip differential transmission. The color is Black with Black and Linen Interior. The interior is really good I would give it a 9.5 out of 10. The black seats look brand new. There are NO Cracks in the dash and is still soft. Has a sony cd player. The body is probably an 8 out of 10. There are minor scratches and dings that would be present on almost any 26 year old car. The car has not been repainted and all of the body panels are original. There are few performance modifications that could all be undone back to stock very easily. Turbonetics dual port wasetgate with a manual boost controller and K&N air filter. Clean and clear title in hand.

This ones black..
