Thinking about buying a porsche

[The_Paladin]

bang on the mark straightsix.............i was reading a book today called Crap Cars (i think it's only availabe in the UK) about all the dud's from each manufacturer........and the 924 was porshe's saying porshe was to manufacture a 2 door sports car for VW but VW pulled out after the car was developed and so porshe badged it themselves..........

[dojobi]

well i definately  know the vl dont  come in a (V6) to start with, and think the porshe is the go, if anything.interested hey mic33r nice pic mate and gday again .

928s in my oppinion arent too crach hot, I know of someone in the US who ripped out the porka engine and put in a 350 chev as it was cheaper to run, more reilable, cheaper on parts, made more power, was quicker, and 150kgs LIGHTER.

how do you fit a 350chev in this?? must be painful..

[cul202]

A 350 Chev would be a much more compact motor than the 4.5/5/5.4L SOHC Porsche V8s, being an ol' pushrod motor...

Also you could get rid of that mechanical injection & twin dizzy business.

forget about the 924, i own one, its sits in the shed under a cover....terrible car, poor handling and piss poor performance. the interior is squashy and outdated, the hatch area is terribly small, the motor is a shocker to work on and you will work on it, often. parts are hard to come by and expensive from new.

good luck with it.

cheers

A 924 is not a Porcshe.  It is some old crapper with an old Audi motor.

:werd: and an Audi light truck motor at that...

As much as I like Porsches I would have to say don't buy a 924. Don't go, don't handle, don't stop. All the thing Porsches are known for.

If you want a Porsche that handles, stops, sweet to drive, pretty as a picture (but has no go.... )then get a 912! :uh-huh:

uh huh

[someonestolecc]

lmfao - so true!

Those particular cars were a piece. You shouldnt bother.  Only ones worth while were 944Ts, 968s and the 911s.
