I like that they list these as "features": Adjustable seats, Cloth upholstery, Folding rear seats, Radio/Cassette.

for a RHD model and mileage that low, $3900 is a pretty reasonable price - even for a 924.

It looks like the photos are from the Euro Autotrader ad. Why do people do this? She even failed at posting the link.

1. trick or treat. a girl will never lie, kidnap and kill you for 3,900 dollahhs (unless of course she's a man from the Russian mafia).

2. I called and asked her if it is a TURBO.... and a girl with a thick Russian accent says, 'of course it's a turbo.'

3. and with this confident assurance, odurandina buys his first 924 to go REALLY FAST and beat on until dead.

Isn't this a 924s? Note the rear spoiler and badge and front valence. Makes it even more of a steal if it has the 944 drivetrain!

I don't know much about the 924 but a "master fuel injector"? Verrry Interesting.

turns out the car is actually a '79....

all rusted and full of rat droppings next to a dumpster in Crooklyn.

there will be no 924 to poop on.

(because it already been pooped on).

You must have a turbo when making big trouble for Moose and Squirrel!


What a Russian spy might look like.

I am not sure if you are dumb or playing dumb? Apparently not every woman on Earth is mechanically inclined, hence the weird terminology. By "master injector" she most likely means cold start valve which is not unusual to malfunction.

Regarding mocking 924, you do realize that you are no different than igorant 911 guys who see 944 and 968 as lowlifes? Gee, grow up. Odurandina is especially obnoxious with his diletant attitude because he FAILED getting Porsche engine to be fast and reliable and now promotes V8 usage everywhere. My 924 will eat your V8 alive lol, what a moron.

For the reference, I have 924's, 911, owned 944's and 928's unlike most of the bragging noobs who think they are center of the universe with their first Porsche, 944.
