Default UPDATE I talked to the owner if the 931 NOT GOOD NEWS

OK here is an update. The guy has never put money into the car.
Its burning oil and he doesn't know why. He has takent the car over 200km/hr Drove it from Vancouver BC to Cali. It used 1lt of oil.
It won't pass aircare. It has 4bolt wheel pattern, non 4wheel disc.
Oh yes the car has 90,000kms

So I am thinking this car is a mistake. What do you guys think?

4 Lug means it's the older, NON-S car.

It's not an interference engine, but still, sounds like it needs work.
I loved mine, but wished for the 924S that I have now. Unless you are
getting it for $500, I'd pass.

Jsut posted on the old thread:

Hahaha why isn't the 924 engine reliable??? That is a very strange statement to me. They are really alot of fun (easy to work on!). Its burning oil prob because of the turbo's seals are gone. I learned alot with my two 924's. I would love to have an N/A to make into a rally car. Check the transmission out. Not passing emissions isn't that bad - just have to find out why. If it is burning oil, I'd start there (turbo).
