Hi, New to this forum so id thought id introduce my self and give a little info.
I recently traded my 90' jeep Cherokee 4x4 with longtravel that i built, for an 1987 porsche 944 here is the c-list ad http://bakersfield.craigslist.org/cto/4311387503.html
it needs some body work and some TLC but thats what i love doing.
The previous owner did allot of work and i have all the receipts to show it. before my jeep I had an 87' pontiac fiero lowerd on eibachs and I thought that car handled good for the year it was made. but when i got this porsche...WOW. It is on koni c/o's though. so i cant say much for how they handle stock but i cant imagine its bad at all.
this car came with allot of extra parts. unfortunately the guy semi gutted it, but i can live with that. I have owned and drivin many cars. camaros..corvettes..mustangs..fieros..obviously you can tell im an american car guy, but the germans really knew what they were doing when they designed this. the 50/50 weights distribution is amazing. anyways here are some pics.
I also have some chrome clubsport wheels that came with it that im trying to sell.

By all means, get the short shifter from "only944.com". It'll make you smile a mile when you install it. It's easy to install, only about $80 and it's outstanding. Everyone who gets it, loves it. Great deal on the car. That road sign in the pic looks like a "challenge" to me.

don't do the body work.
just get that thing running tip top. and keep it in the zone until it goes full Money Pit Motors Corp on you....
we had a 924 a few years ago with a blend of body panels in Guards Red and extremely faded Guard's Pink
and a few dents.... then added these stunning wheels to really make for a unique look.![thumbsup](https://rennlist.com/forums/graemlins/bigok.gif)
so, then what does he go and do?
btw, can anyone identify the wheels?
