Welcome to the forum. Nice ride. If you search the forum for "central fl gtg", you will find several very cool people w/ similar interest in cars. While I am in NC most of the year and, therefore, unable to attend - the group meets regularly and has quite a bit of fun.

Its a very clean car. You are a lucky guy.

Where part of Orlando are you in?

As Acetylene mentioned, we meet up once in a while to hang out and see eachothers cars.
Send me a PM if you'd like to meet up with other 944/951 owners in O-town!

Your new car is gorgeous, that interior is awesome!!!

Awesome interior ; if you make sure never to leave it parked under the sun it should never fade away.

Looks great, but that grungy, yellowed coolant expansion tank has GOT to go! Cheap, easy replacement, and that engine compartment will be gorgeous.

You sure about that? I have an '89 brochure and the engine bay pictures show it as white as a new one.

Great looking car flpaindoc, that is the nicest example of that interior I've ever seen. Never saw a plaid one I really liked before, but that one is so perfect, it looks great. I hope you can keep it out of the sun!

I guess they could make it look however they wanted in the brochure. The picture looks brighter white than my new one did, and after a year it's not as bright as it started out. Definitely no yellow in either one though. You're lucky to have seen one new, I wish I would have done that when I was a poor college kid.
