Default **** 944 Guys Say

So after watching this video and noticing quite a few of these things apply to 944s...




I thought we need to start a thread to list all the "**** 944 guys say" so maybe some listers can get together and make a video (cool idea would be for various listers to film different parts and one of us throw them together into one video)

Post away!

edit: as I brainstorm with my buddies I am getting so many good quotes... anything RL can add?

a start "It IS a real porsche IT SAVED THE COMPANY YOU KNOW"
"This hatch has SO MUCH ROOM"
"I drive it to the track myself all my race slicks fit in the trunk"
"Wait, early or late offset?"
"GUARDS RED"
"I NEED euro bumpers"
"EURO EURO EURO"
"JUST THROW IN A V8"
"DONT TOUCH IT UNTIL YOU DO THE TIMING BELT fwejnfNEGIWNGVWIEOFJWNMQJDNJSCNKqkndjvnewkmfwke!!!!!!!!"
"It's real cheap, the thing's half a volkswagen"
"In 1987, the Porsche 944 turbo became the first car in the world to have driver and passenger airbags as standard equipment."
"clutch? gonna have to pull the motor. replacing AC lines? gonna have to pull the motor."
"I had my oil filters shipped from germany"
"had ____ shipped from germany"
"don't downshift to 1st its geared too low"
"don't shift to 2nd too fast it'll grind"
"you can get to 60 in 2nd gear"
"best handling car in the WORLD"
"my dash only has a FEW cracks"
"power steering line's leaking again!"
"change those lines it's GOING TO BURN DOWN IMMEDIATELY"
"I waved to this nice 911 and he didn't wave back. WTF"

It must be the DME relay - all seven that you tried are probably bad.

The transmission is supposed to whine, that's how you know it's still working.

Why doesn't my odometer work?

Will these wheels fit?

Does ------ oil have enough zinc?

Why does my car smell like gas?

That's funny, because I actually do say that!
