Personally, I think my '87 Black-on-Black auto would make a great fit for you. Just fininshed an entire top-end refresh and front end service (okay... almost done... still need to torque the crank bolt.) Will be installing the PKlamp tonight and maybe the new passenger door lock motor if it's not too hot (it's supposed to be 97 here today so it might get pushed off until it cools off.)

Click on my signature for details about the car. There are a couple other threads about the car that I started if you want to get the whole story.

I actually have been looking at your car. I like it a lot!

It's 100 degrees here in the Northeast. Very hot. You haven't done a timing belt have you? How hard is that to do?

Where is the thread, I'd like to read it.

Definately an S4. I love the later look.

I'm planning on spending $10,000 to $15,000 for the right one.

I'm in no hurry, I just don't want to make a mistake with someone elses headache.
Dont forget the darkblues.. DunkelBlau is very pretty when clean.

Just an observation.
-944's are usually driven by the younger guys.
-928's are being saved by the more mature.

That's what I've seen throughout the years.
