Perfect red "944 Turbo" aka 951 sighting in Waldorf Maryland
Today as I was getting stuff out of my truck at Home Depot in Waldorf, MD; I saw a perfect red car in the lot. The owner and his wife were just getting in when I approached the vehicle. So I introduced myself and he told me how he just bought it a year ago, from the original owner.
This car was easily the best looking 951 I have ever seen! It only had 30K miles and flawless paint, tan interior, everything. Not even a single chip! He said that he's planning on keeping the car 100% original, not even a chip! I can agree to that somewhat, but I think the Vitesse chip is a easily forgivable mod and well worth it. So he hadn't heard of Rennlist, or even Clark's Garage, and I gave him the info. Hopefully he'll check Rennlist out and see what owning a 951 is all about! If you make it on here, it was nice meeting you

I sure as heck know where Waldorf is.
Hey Josh, where in MD are you? I spend a lot of time in Chevy Chase/Bethesda and some time in Baltimore for work. Have you ever been to the Dorkiphus forums? Local (NoVA) P-car guys there, a good group of friendly and helpful guys.

This is all very well and good, but why do so many people on this forum refer to the 944 Turbo as the 951? That's not exactly a number that everyone knows.
It's clear that everyone knows terms like 911, or 930, or 944, or 928, but 951, or 986, or 987? Gees. Call it what it is.
