have been stalking here for a while enjoying all of the knowledge shared.
Now it is time to pull the trigger on my first Porsche if everything checks out.

The car is a '92 Carrera 2 in Cobalt blue with 129,000 miles. It will go for a PPI on friday and I have booked a flight for the 400 mile trip up to NorCal to see the car and hopefully drive her back to SoCal.

 

good luck with it! - Make sure it doesnt have the undertray still under the engine and if it does - make sure you do a leakdown in the PPI. Compression test wont tell the whole story, and I would worry if it has the undertray...

 

Good luck with the PPI. Cobalt is a great color.

I've always had a soft spot for Abarths myself, Carlo was a genius at wringing out power from such little engines.

 

Love cobalt.

 

Good luck with the purchase.

 

Thanks !
One of Abarths best was the Abarth Carerra in the '60s.
Italian style and German muscle !

 

Good luck on your purchase! We should head out to cars and coffee in Irvine when you get it.

 

I remember one of them back in the mid 60s, raced at a local track, what a mean machine, had the longest exhaust coming out the back, pretty much straight up in the air.

 

I think that Cars & Coffee in Irvine will be the coming out party. Always a big Porsche contingent, but few 964s.

 

Best of luck...great looking car! Still hoping a nice slate grey finds its' way to me with open arms.

 

great looking car

 

I'll trade you if you have a wonderful Colbalt Blue 964 like Abarth's.
Great looking car Abarth, that will get some attention at Cars & Coffee!

 

looks nice

 

Thanks for the support !
Will have to see how I like the white/blue interior thou........

 

Looks great!!
