A trim and shapely early 20's something gal as I remember it. Not too big a person but she had to put her LEGS across to other side of the car. I think my big Bronco was in the shop or something . Neither one was the best for gals in tight dresses - for them that is .

Got yours looking good too Ernie.

I guess the original 16k mile dash was cracked?

Why are all the low milers in AZ??

Here's a more reasonable one. 27k miles, half the price.

Anybody want me to look at it for them? It was at our lil sunday morning car show a couple days ago.

I sat in the back when I was in high school (I'm not short, either ... over 6' in HS) for a 5 hour ride. It was god awful. Legs on the driver side as well.

It is really an immaculate car, for sure. The new car sold for upper 20's to low 30's. I'd love to have it but I'm slowly restoring my '87 which is worth a lot more than therapy sessions. I'd have a tough time justifying more than 10 grand for a 944 N/A. Turbo's can get more than that.

The values of all vintage Porsches has been slowly creeping up. The days of cheap air cooled 911s are coming to an end, 914s are gaining collectability, so it's only inevitable they drag nice original 944s up with them (which are becoming rare in their own right).

That window sticker shows just shy of $32,000 with the few listed options, including LSD.

I have a copy of the window sticker for my '89 2.7L NA, it has basically the same colors and options, but is an AUTO and has no LSD and it was like $46-48,000 new. Seriously.

this is why the Porsche 4 cylinders ended. priced themselves out of existence.

the 993 was the 'buy' of the '80s and '90s.
